Description Graham Perrin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-10-24 22:04:23 UTC
Time for an update? 

The most recent listing at homepage <https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/> was twenty-one months ago: 

> 2021-01-24
> 
> * To reflect the prelease state of FreeBSD 13.0, the following were done:
>   * Version 13.0-STABLE of product Base System was created.
>   * The flag type mfc-stable13 was created.
> * As support for them has ended, Base System versions 12.0-RELEASE and 
>   12.0-STABLE were disabled for new bugs.
> * Hardware value sparc64 has been disabled for new bugs.

Since then, I'm aware of: 

* …
* deprecation of two keywords
* broader availability of some saved searches
* …

Thanks

News comes from 'template/en/custom/news.html.tmpl' [1], which while it can be updated manually on the Bugzilla server, means it diverges from upstream and causes 'issues and confusion' later. Local untracked changes to deployed files is not a great workflow.

The target state is:

- We can easily and frequently update bugzilla code and news
- Update news template on GitHub
- Deploy updates to server (automatically, see bug 225060)
