+ <para>
+ Users who belong to the group specified by the <quote>timetrackinggroup</quote>
+ parameter have access to time-related fields. Developers can see
+ deadlines and estimated times to fix bugs, and can provide time spent
+ on these bugs.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ At any time, a summary of the time spent by developers on bugs is
+ accessible either from bug lists when clicking the <quote>Time Summary</quote>
+ button or from individual bugs when clicking the <quote>Summarize time</quote>
+ link in the time tracking table. The <filename>summarize_time.cgi</filename>
+ page lets you view this information either per developer or per bug,
+ and can be split on a month basis to have greater details on how time
+ is spent by developers.
+ </para>

+ <para>
+ As soon as a bug is marked as RESOLVED, the remaining time expected
+ to fix the bug is set to zero. This lets QA people set it again for
+ their own usage, and it will be set to zero again when the bug will
+ be marked as CLOSED.
