From time-to-time, pre-releases are made of our software so
that we can do internal testing before doing a public release. If you find a bug in a pre-release,
please try to confirm whether the bug also appears in the previous public
release. This is in keeping with
the policy that the “version” field in bugzilla
refers to the first known release with the
bug. Since pre-releases are not
released to the public, we don’t clutter up the readme
file with new bugs introduced in a pre-release. They are just an artifact of the release process. Such bugs should be marked with the
version “pre-release” in bugzilla. But if the bug was really around in a public
release before the pre-release, we need to have that fact reflected in the readme. Thanks in
advance for your help with this. Ken |
