+>5.4. Components</H1
+><P
+>Components are subsections of a Product. E.g. the computer game
+ you are designing may have a "UI"
+ component, an "API" component, a "Sound System" component, and a
+ "Plugins" component, each overseen by a different programmer. It
+ often makes sense to divide Components in Bugzilla according to the
+ natural divisions of responsibility within your Product or
+ company.</P
+><P
+>&#13; Each component has a owner and (if you turned it on in the parameters),
+ a QA Contact. The owner should be the primary person who fixes bugs in
+ that component. The QA Contact should be the person who will ensure
+ these bugs are completely fixed. The Owner, QA Contact, and Reporter
+ will get email when new bugs are created in this Component and when
+ these bugs change. Default Owner and Default QA Contact fields only
+ dictate the
+ <EM
+>default assignments</EM
+>;
+ these can be changed on bug submission, or at any later point in
+ a bug's life.</P
+><P
+>To create a new Component:</P

+TYPE="1"

+>Select the "Edit components" link from the "Edit product"
+ page</P

+></LI
+><LI
+><P
+>Fill out the "Component" field, a short "Description",
+ the "Initial Owner" and "Initial QA Contact" (if enabled.)
+ The Component and Description fields may contain HTML;
+ the "Initial Owner" field must be a login name
+ already existing in the database.
