  10
  11     <p>
  12       The
  13       <a href="https://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu">
  14   Center for Distributed Object Computing</a> used the
  15       Bugzilla
  16       bug tracking system to keep track of existing problems and
  17       enhancement requests. Currently <a href="https://github.com/DOCGroup/ACE_TAO/issues">
  18       github issues</a> are used
  19
  20     <p>
  21       To streamline our development process, you can now use it to
  22       enter problem reports or make a request for a particular feature
  23       that you'd like to see integrated into
  24       <a href="https://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/ACE">ACE</a>,
  25       <a href="https://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/TAO">TAO</a> or <a
  26       href="https://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/CIAO">CIAO</a>.
  27
  28     <p>
  29       You can also use it to track the status of a particular bug or
  30       enhancement.  In addition, the bug tracking system can be used
  31       to add comments and attachments that contain solutions or simple
  32       test cases.
  33
  34     <p>
  35       The bug tracking system is located at the following web site:
  36       <samp>
  37   <a href="http://bugzilla.dre.vanderbilt.edu/">
  38     http://bugzilla.dre.vanderbilt.edu/
  39   </a>
  40       </samp>
  41
  42     <p>
  43       If all you want to do is browse through the bugs in our bug
  44       tracking system or view bug summary reports, then you can use
  45       the bug tracking system right away.
  46
  47     <p>
  48       Upon entering a bug or enhancement request for the first time,
  49       you will be asked to enter an e-mail address.  Once you've done
  50       that, you will be mailed a password that you can use to log on
  51       to the bug tracking system.  You will only be asked to do this
  52       once.  Any changes to bug reports you submit will be mailed to
  53       the e-mail address you provide.
  54
  55     <p>
  56       Once you've logged on, you will have to ask for permissions through
  57       the ACE mailing list to obtain permissions to enter bug
  58       reports and modify existing ones.  Other than adding comments,
  59       fixes and attachments, please do not modify bug reports you
  60       haven't submitted.
  61
  62     <p>
  63       The bug tracking system is fairly straightforward to use.  When
  64       entering bug reports or enhancement requests, enter as much
  65       information as possible.  Most of the bug form fields provide
  66       help if you are unsure what a particular field is used for.
  67
  68     <p>
  69       For more information about using Bugzilla, and about bug
  70       reporting in general,  please see the following web sites:

  85       Keep in mind that the Bugzilla installation at the above web
  86       site is <em>not</em> the same Bugzilla installation at the
  87       Center for Distributed Object Computing.  All bug reports and
  88       enhancement requests for ACE and TAO should be done at the
  89       Center for Distributed Object Computing's Bugzilla web site.
