J2EE - what, if anything, does it mean to Bugzilla??

[Bruce Armstrong [TeamSybase]]

Apache uses Bugzilla:

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/

The 1.0 version of Scarab (the bug tracking system
based on Apache products that you're probably thinking
of) is still in beta:

http://scarab.tigris.org/

That's probably the strongest selling point for
Bugzilla.  It's a well established product, while
Scarab is still in its infancy (actually, it hasn't
even been born yet...)
