Folks,
If you've noticed in the past months that you can no longer
edit/close bugs in bugzilla, it's very likely that your account
needs to be added to the "editbugs" group. Let me know and I'll
take care of it.
The background is that a while ago, we had some vandalism
on the sourceware.org bug tracker, and to prevent that from
happening again, new users don't have 'editbugs'
capabilities automatically any longer. Old users may need to
have that added back too.
The discussion around this happened mostly on the glibc list
a few months back, and I've been noticing that some folks
missed it. See here for more:

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
