+ <revremark>
+ Took way too long to revise this for 2.12 release. Updated
+ FAQ to use qandaset tags instead of literallayout, cleaned
+ up administration section, added User Guide section,
+ miscellaneous FAQ updates and third-party integration
+ information. From this point on all new tags are lowercase
+ in preparation for the 2.13 release of the Guide in XML
+ format instead of SGML.

+ <revremark>
+ Things fixed this release: Elaborated on queryhelp
+ interface, added FAQ regarding moving bugs from one keyword
+ to another, clarified possible problems with the Landfill
+ tutorial, fixed a boatload of typos and unclear sentence
+ structures. Incorporated the README into the UNIX
+ installation section, and changed the README to indicate the
+ deprecated status. Things I know need work: Used
+ "simplelist" a lot, where I should have used "procedure" to
+ tag things. Need to lowercase all tags to be XML compliant.

+ <revremark>
+ Attempted to integrate relevant portions of the UNIX and
+ Windows installation instructions, moved some data from FAQ
+ to Install, removed references to README from text, added
+ Mac OS X install instructions, fixed a bunch
+ of tpyos (Mark Harig), linked text that referenced other
+ parts of the Guide, and nuked the old MySQL permissions
+ section.

+ that, when used together, power issue-tracking for hundreds of
+ organizations around the world, tracking millions of bugs.
+ While it is easy to use and quite flexible, it is
+ difficult for a novice to install and maintain. Although we
+ have provided step-by-step directions, Bugzilla is not always
+ easy to get working. Please be sure the person responsible
+ for installing and maintaining this software is a qualified
+ professional for the operating system upon which you install
+ Bugzilla.
