Hi everyone.
I'd like gdb to switch from gnats to bugzilla. Gnats is showing its
age and is annoying to use. I think this is a contributing factor to
the under-reporting of gdb bugs and general under-use of the gdb bug
tracker.
My general plan is:
* Write a patch for the documentation and the web site.
* Disable Gnats.
* Get gnats2bz and convert the current database.
This will renumber all the bugs; I don't consider this a major
problem.
* Get DannyB to upload this into the current sourceware bugzilla
instance and check in all the changes.
* Archive the Gnats database.
If you have any objections, speak up.
Tom
