Bugzilla, but not straight away. Leave it for at *least* a few days after the release. We usually get release announcements anyway, and it can take a while to get working ebuilds into the tree -- bugspam thirty seconds after a new release just wastes our time. On the other hand, sometimes we miss things, so a bug after a reasonable amount of time can help. -- Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Fluxbox, shell tools) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm
