Bugzilla currently lacks categories for several important parts of wine. This is natural - nothing's perfect. Rather than fix this all at one go, let's just add categories as we find we need them.
I propose adding categories for msxml and setupapi now. Here are bugzilla queries that find quite a few bugs that are candidates for moving into those categories:
http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=ms...
http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=se...
I think they show enough hits to make the categories worth it. IIRC, James Hawkins has said he thinks we need a setupapi category, so I'm not alone in this.
The categories might help shake loose bugs like http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2223 which have patches associated with them but haven't gotten any attention.
The MSXML category will help me as I dredge together projects for cs130 to focus on...
So, what does it take to create a new category? Can the admin just do it? We can move the appropriate bugs over to the new categories later.
Thanks, Dan

Good idea. In case someone is going to add these catagories, please also add catagories for comctl32 and msvcrt. Regards Louis

I will add these categories to bugzilla as soon as I can but unfortunatly bugzilla and the AppDB and the main site are down since at least 9:00 AM MST

Can you also add an 'installer' keyword? This would be helpful in keeping track of all installer bugs, whether they use msi, setupapi, advpack, etc.

I have added these components
http://bugs.winehq.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Wine
I just wanted to point out that we have a component wine-gui that is kind of a catch all that seems to include bugs in richedit, ddraw, comctrl, rebar and x11. I believe it would be a good thing if someone could do some janitorial on this to sort them out into there proper components.

I sorted a few of these out into richedit and comctl.
Say, Tony, could you create a wine-atl component? http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=at... pulls up five bugs that belong in that category. - Dan
