I do know what CVS is, but misunderstood that you were refering to a general bugzilla CVS. >> I have just been submitting a bugzilla on FC-4 >> (nothing to do with documentation) >> and found the whole process rather daunting. >> A bit like a conversation in a foreign language. >> I can't believe that this is the best way >> to document and resolve bugs. >> >> But this is probably OT here, in which case please ignore me. > > Actually, we really need a "How To Use Fedora Bugzilla" document.

I guess in this case it would have been best if there had been a simple Help file at the bugzilla site. I'm currently trying to work out why remote use of CUPS seems to have ceased to work since I went over to FC-4. I must look around and see if there is a simple CUPS howto (I certainly don't think the official CUPS documentation could be described in that way.) If I don't find any such HOWTO I shall certainly pen a few words. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-docs-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-docs-list
