Your Help Needed With Bugzilla 2.18 Release Process!

[Maxwell Kanat-Alexander]

Hey there! We have several administrative tasks that need to be done in order to be able to release 2.18. These are now the major blockers to the release.

  They each have a bug in bugzilla.mozilla.org. These bugs are all assigned to Dave Miller (justdave) at the moment, but *anybody* may take them and assign them to themselves, and then work on that part of the release!

  To get the website templates on your local machine, you can use CVS:

  export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous at cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/www
  cvs -q co -d bugzilla.org mozilla-org/html/projects/bugzilla

  Here are the tasks that need to be done:

  bug 277509: Status Update Release for 2.18 
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277509

  bug 277510: Update the "Changes" page for 2.18 Release
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277510

  bug 277511: Update the Download page for 2.18
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277511

  bug 277512: News Announcement for 2.18 Release
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277512

  bug 277515: Release Announcement for Bugzilla 2.18
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277515

  If you need information for these things, you can use the Release Notes (with the patch attached to bug 150149: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150149).

  The faster we get all of these small website changes done, the faster we can release 2.18. :-) Feel free to submit patches to any of those bugs.
