Tony, I think the appdb is mostly PHP/MySQL. I gather that Bugzilla is a whole bucket of other stuff.
Bugzilla a MESS of crufty Perl code. I've found it very difficult to extend that code any further without breaking it.
The only hitch you might run into is that Jer is planning an overhaul of the appdb code, so it may be a bit tricky to work through that.
Exactly, we have quite a few updates planed for AppDB. I will add a BugZilla link field to each App Version soon. I'll need someone with MUCHO spare time on his hands to actually go though and link each App Version Id to a Bugzilla Bug Id. This is NOT a small amount of work.
Ah! grunt work. Thank goodness there's only 512 of them. oops 513...
Honestly not that bad. a lot of them are not even app bugs. meta bugs etc... What should I do with them? Of course there are probably some that have no AppDB entry. Swell, I 've already added one so I already know how to do that.
I need an account to get started and maybe a few pointers.
