Hi everyone! A final update on the status of our FreeDOS Bugzilla archive. Last week, I reported that I'd started work to create an html archive of our old FreeDOS Bugzilla. I've now finished archiving all the bugs (we had only 530 bugs in the database) and all the attachments. There's a simple view into the archive at:
http://www.freedos.org/bugzilla/ ..which redirects immediately to: http://www.freedos.org/bugzilla/cgi-bin/report.cgi All but 2 of the bugs exported successfully to html. Those 2 bugs would ALWAYS generate an "internal server error". But I was able to grab an xml version of those 2 bugs, so at least we have all the bug data. (And one of those bugs was marked RESOLVED/FIXED, so I'm probably not going to work too hard to convert these to html.) If you're worried about your email address being visible in the archive, the display of all "mailto:"; links has been intentionally broken, to block spammers from harvesting email addresses from our archive. (The address is still readable - it's just the "mailto:"; link has been converted to a "#" link.) There's a simple "report" index that has links to all the bugs in the archive, including a short description of each bug, but there's no search function. Special thanks to Tassilo for providing the hosting of our FreeDOS Bugzilla on his systems, and his patience while we figured out what to do with our old Bugzilla. -jh On Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 6:48 AM, Jim Hall <[email protected]> wrote: > Just an update on the FreeDOS bug migration: We're now officially > using the bug Tracker at Sourceforge for tracking all our FreeDOS > bugs. > > Yesterday, I started the prep work (running reports) to create an html > archive of the FreeDOS Bugzilla.
