The bugzilla was down for most of the day, upgrading to a new version. (I know this only from seeing reports).
It is now up. But when I tried to file a new bug report, it was far from clear what to do. It looks to me as if it is not yet ready for prime time. Some of the links (including “HELP”) are broken.
I guess I’ll try again tomorrow.

Hi
You probably need to wait for the openSUSE one to come online…

Wow. The new skin (openSUSE specific one) looks great 
It will be a pleasure posting bugs
They really ought to have changed to Mantis or Jira, Bugzilla is usually almost unusable as soon as the project grows (speed wise).
Bugzilla now seems accessible.
I have just filed a bug report:
“csh” is broken – startup script problem](https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=897634)
Filing was slow. It took a while for the list of frequent bugs to show up. After clicking “submit” there was a long delay before anything happened.
I then added an attachment. That seemed to be fast. So the slowness is maybe only associated with new bugs.
Reading the attachment on line does not work well. I had to download the attachment to read it. When I try to read online, I see it all as one long line (no line breaks).

Hi
I think you should perhaps cancel that and create one here?

I’ll consider that, but later.
I entered the bug by following the link to openSUSE:Submitting bug reports, then clicking the line for factory.
Retrying that now gives a broken link. The link you provide looks as if it may do better. But I’ll give it more time for things to settle down.

Hi
Ahhh it shows up in the right place, a new landing page instead…

I had the bugzilla page opened on some bugs; I told FF to refresh them,
and they reappeared, in ugly red colours. And the tabs looks the same
for novell as for, say, xfs, no novell mini icon.
My links are like:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=....
Maybe I have to edit that to point to:
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=....
Now it is greenish. But still the tabs are not customized

Both forms of link seem to work. But I guess we should prefer “bugzilla.opensuze.org” for referring to opensuse bugs.
Does that mean that instead of a “bnc number” we will need a “boo number” 
At present, new bug reports do not seem to be showing up on the opensuse-bugs mailing list.

Heh. But I hundreds of stored references to bugzillas. Means clicking,
then editing the url, and reloading, in the new theme.

Do you at least get sent to you the creation email?

I think you can just leave them as they are. They should still work, though perhaps people will see them in the wrong theme.

I don’t think I have ever received creation email.
If someone comments on my recent bug report, I’ll be able to check whether I get an email for that.

Indeed. A red, ugly, theme, that they have chosen for Novell.

No?
I don’t remember for what items you get email by default, but I changed
the settings years ago so that I receive them for everything: posts or
changes I do, or that others do. That way I can search my mail folder
and locate an item of information that I remember was somewhere in some
bugzilla in which I participated at some time

It seems that email is not going out from bugzilla at present.
I manually checked my recent report (using the link in #6 above). There was a response with a NEEDINFO request. But I did not receive any email about this.

I’m getting them. I just created a bug, and commented on some reports,
and I got emails.
In full html :-p

Yes, I’m getting email now. I wasn’t when I posted that earlier reply. Apparently there was an email problem, but it is now fixed.
There are actually some profile settings on bugzilla, where you can specify that you want plain-text email. You can also specify that you want the opensuse skin, even if you use the novell url.
And, while on the topic, sometimes adding a comment gets you some cryptic warning about not having the right token. And I have no idea what that is all about.

I thought that may be the case.

I saw that, and left it at html. It is actually easier to read

That one I did not notice.

Yes, I have seen it. There is a thread about it on the mail list, with
only symptoms.

He.
I do a search for “My Bugs”. I get:
«Zarro Boogs found»

Those are the bugs assigned to you (for you to fix).
Try, instead, the “Reports”. That should give a list of bugs that you have reported.
