+ <para>
+ The whining system defines an "Event" as one or more queries being
+ executed at regular intervals, with the results of said queries (if
+ there are any) being emailed to the user. Events are created by
+ clicking on the "Add new event" button.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Once a new event is created, the first thing to set is the "Email
+ subject line". The contents of this field will be used in the subject
+ line of every email generated by this event. In addition to setting a
+ subject, space is provided to enter some descriptive text that will be
+ included at the top of each message (to help you in understanding why
+ you received the email in the first place).
+ </para>
+

+ The next step is to specify when the Event is to be run (the Schedule)
+ and what searches are to be performed (the Queries).

+
+ <section id="whining-schedule">
+ <title>Whining Schedule</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Each whining event is associated with zero or more schedules. A
+ schedule is used to specify when the query (specified below) is to be
+ run. A new event starts out with no schedules (which means it will
+ never run, as it is not scheduled to run). To add a schedule, press
+ the "Add a new schedule" button.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Each schedule includes an interval, which you use to tell Bugzilla
+ when the event should be run. An event can be run on certain days of
+ the week, certain days of the month, during weekdays (defined as
+ Monday through Friday), or every day.
+ </para>
+
+ <warning>
+ <para>
+ Be careful if you set your event to run on the 29th, 30th, or 31st of
+ the month, as your event may not run exactly when expected. If you
+ want your event to run on the last day of the month, select "Last day
+ of the month" as the interval.
+ </para>
+ </warning>
+
+ <para>
+ Once you have specified the day(s) on which the event is to be run, you
+ should now specify the time at which the event is to be run. You can
+ have the event run at a certain hour on the specified day(s), or
+ every hour, half-hour, or quarter-hour on the specified day(s).
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ If a single schedule does not execute an event as many times as you
+ would want, you can create another schedule for the same event. For
+ example, if you want to run an event on days whose numbers are
+ divisible by seven, you would need to add four schedules to the event,
+ setting the schedules to run on the 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th (one day

+ The next field to examine is the Search field. This is where you
+ choose the actual search that is to be run. Instead of defining search
+ parameters here, you are asked to choose from the list of saved
+ searches (the same list that appears at the bottom of every Bugzilla
+ page). You are only allowed to choose from searches that you have
+ saved yourself (the default saved search, "My Bugs", is not a valid
+ choice). If you do not have any saved searches, you can take this
+ opportunity to create one (see <xref linkend="list"/>).
+ </para>
+
+ <note>
+ <para>
+ When running queries, the whining system acts as if you are the user

+ </note>
+

+ Once you have chosen the saved search to be executed, give the query a
