  Three Bugzilla releases today! They're mostly security-fix and 
bug-fix updates.

  Bugzilla 2.22.2 is a bug-fix and security-fix release for the
Bugzilla 2.22 series.

  Bugzilla 2.20.4 is a security-fix release for the Bugzilla 2.20
series.

  Bugzilla 2.23.4 is our unstable development release. However,
it should be considerably more stable than 2.23.3, since it is
currently running on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and has received
some "live testing" there.

  Still, we only recommend the 2.23.x series for testing purposes!!
The 2.23.x series will become Bugzilla 3.0. Our current target date
for the release of Bugzilla 3.0 is early April.

  Our primary block to releasing 3.0 is that we don't have enough 
people to help with the QA process and the release process. If you'd
like to help, please let us know by coming into #mozwebtools on
irc.mozilla.org. You don't have to be a programmer to help with the
release process! You just have to know HTML. You also don't really
have to be much of a programmer to help with QA! So come help out
the project, we'd love your assistance. :-)

  We hope you enjoy all our new releases!

About Bugzilla
--------------
Bugzilla is a "Defect Tracking System" or "Bug-Tracking System."
Defect Tracking Systems allow individual or groups of developers
to keep track of outstanding bugs in their product effectively.
Most commercial defect-tracking software vendors charge enormous
licensing fees. Despite being "free", Bugzilla has many features
its expensive counterparts lack. Consequently, Bugzilla has quickly
become a favorite of hundreds of organizations across the globe, and
is widely regarded as one of the top defect-tracking systems available.
