Well, I just did a new release of VCI! This is version 0.5.3, and it fixes all the test failures and issues that I found with recent Perl module upgrades and the latest versions of all the VCSes. So, VCI should be fully usable with all the modern tools, now!

Hey folks! The Bugzilla Update has moved to its own blog ( Read more... )

So, about a week ago I ordered an 80GB Intel X25-M G2 SSD, and as of a few days ago, it's running as my main system disk. It's a lot smaller than my old main disk (which was 320GB), but I just kept all my sound and pictures on the old main disk and moved the operating system over to the new disk, and that handled the size difference.

Well, it's time for another Bugzilla update! And today I just did two releases, Bugzilla 3.4rc1 and Bugzilla 3.2.4.

Bugzilla 3.4rc1Bugzilla 3.4rc1 is particularly exciting, because it's our first Release Candidate for 3.4. We did a really good job on this Release Candidate, I think--there's only one 3.4 blocker remaining (and it's only still there ( Read more... )

Well, it's time for another Bugzilla update!

Bugzilla 3.4In the Bugzilla 3.4 area, we just made some more changes to how the login form in the header and footer work. Now it's easy again for users to discover how to reset their password--when we moved the login forms into the header/footer, we at first didn't have any way for people to discover ( Read more... )
