Yes. I guess localization bugs are now submitted under native-lang -> locale; so changing l10n to l18n makes sense. Looking at https://issues.apache.org/ooo/describecomponents.cgi?product=l10n "helpcontent" is rather ambiguos. If it is about the Online Help application, this belongs to the application framework; if its about the help files, it belongs to documentation; if it about help files translation, it belongs to native-lang->locale... All the other items belong to i18n: - BiDi - i18npool - localedata but "www" I have no idea what that means in this context. May be the new QA contributors can perform an experiment in submitting new bugs, sure new eyes can tell how hard it is to guess which is the right product-component, and how much sense do some categories have.
