Proposed Categories for Bugzilla
This is a proposal for how to split up the bugzilla system appropriately. Please add comments etc as appropriate.
At present I think we have 2 products:-
- Exim - the main package
- Infrastructure - support stuff like the website, the mailing lists, bugzilla etc
Infrastructure Components
- Sesame
- Web
- Ftp
- Mailing lists
- Mirrors
Exim Components
- Documentation
- Test harness
- Release process
- Packaging (ie support for RPMs etc)
- Lookups
- Mail Receipt
- Queues
- ACLs
- Routing
- Transports
- SMTP Authentication
- TLS (Encryption)
- Filters - Exim
- Filters - Sieve
- Content Scanning
- Address Rewriting
- Logging
- Networking
- Utilities - Monitor
- Utilities - Eximstats
- Utilities - Exigrep
- Utilities - Exipick
- Utilities - db
- Utilities - other
- Experimental
- Unfiled (Email files into here as do people that are unsure)
Other Comments
Wishlist items are filed as bugs with severity set to wishlist.
Might there be an advantage in doing the split a little higher - ie have products of:-
- Exim
- Exim Docs
- Exim Utilities
Splitting at a higher level, however, means that all version numbers would have to be duplicated for each 'product', since the list of versions is per-product.
