REMINDER: Red Hat Bugzilla (bugzilla.redhat.com) will be unavailable on August 13th starting at 9:00 p.m. EDT [01:00 UTC] to perform an upgrade from Bugzilla 3.4 to Bugzilla 3.6. We are hoping to be complete in no more than 5 hours barring any problems. Any services relying on bugzilla.redhat.com may not work properly during this time. Please be aware in case you need use of those services during the outage.
====Outage: PHX2 network outage - 2010-08-15 01:00 UTC==== 
Mike McGrath<ref>Mike McGrath mmcgrath at redhat.com</ref> on Fri Aug 13 00:12:20 UTC 2010 announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2010-August/000661.html</ref>,


Also *PLEASE* make sure any scripts or other external applications that rely on bugzilla.redhat.com are tested against our test server before the upgrade if you have not done so already (see original email below). Let the Bugzilla Team know immediately of any issues found by reporting the bug in bugzilla.redhat.com against the Bugzilla product, version 3.6.

-------------------------------------------


Greetings,
====Fedora 14 Alpha Go/No-Go Meeting August 19, 2010 @ 12:00 AM UTC==== 
John Poelstra<ref>John Poelstra poelstra at redhat.com</ref> on Tue Aug 17 23:59:56 UTC 2010 announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2010-August/000662.html</ref>,


The Red Hat Bugzilla team is happy to announce another public beta release of the next version of Red Hat Bugzilla based on the upstream 3.6 code base.
=====Where=====
"Join us on irc.freenode.net #fedora-meeting for this important meeting.


Please test drive at: <ref>https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com</ref>
=====When=====
Thursday, August 19, 2010, @ 12:00 AM UTC ( *20:00 EDT/17:00 PDT--Wednesday, August 18, 2010* )


Over the years Red Hat has made substantial customizations to Bugzilla to fit into the Engineering tool chain. Over time the upstream has incorporated some of these customizations or solved them in different ways. Upgrading reduces our customization footprint (and thus maintenance) while bringing many bug fixes & enhancements.
=====Details=====
"Before each public release Development, QA, and Release Engineering meet to determine if the release criteria are met for a particular
release. This meeting is called the: '''Go/No-Go Meeting'''."


The main area of focus for our public betas is stability. Functionality that currently works in our 3.4 code base should continue to work as expected in the new 3.6 release. These include various ajax optimizations, needinfo actor support, frontpage.cgi, product browser, several various UI enhancements, and of course the XMLRPC API.
"'''Verifying that the Release criteria are met is the responsibility of the QA Team.'''"
 
Please feel free to point your various scripts and third party applications that use the XMLRPC API at the test server to make sure they continue to function properly.
 
There are numerous other changes behind the scenes that we haven't listed. The goal is to make sure that functionality that people have come to expect in 3.4 is possible in the new system.
 
There are also numerous new features/fixes that are part of the upstream 3.6 release. For more detailed information on what has changed since the last release, check out the release notes page at<ref>https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/page.cgi?id=release-notes.html</ref> .
 
The database is a recent snapshot of the live database so should be useful for testing to make sure the information is displayed properly and changeable. Also with a full snapshot it is possible to test for any performance related issues. Email has been disabled so that unnecessary spam is not sent out. So feel free to make changes to bugs to verify proper working order.
 
We are asking for everyone to get involved as much as possible with testing and feedback on the beta releases to help us make this the most robust and stable release possible.
 
Please file any enhancement requests or bug reports in our current Bugzilla system at <ref>https://bugzilla.redhat.com</ref>. File them under the Bugzilla product and relevant component with the version 3.6. With everyone's help we can make this a great release."
