+========================
+About This Documentation
+========================
+
+This is the documentation for version |version| of Bugzilla, a bug-tracking
+system from Mozilla. Bugzilla is an enterprise-class piece of software
+that tracks millions of bugs and issues for thousands of organizations around
+the world.
+
+The most current version of this document can always be found on the
+`Bugzilla website <http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/>`_.

+
+Evaluating Bugzilla
+###################
+
+If you want to try out Bugzilla to see if it meets your needs, you can do so
+on `Landfill <https://landfill.bugzilla.org/bugzilla-4.4-branch/>`_, our test
+server. The `Bugzilla FAQ <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:FAQ>`_ may also
+be helpful, as it answers a number of questions people sometimes have about
+whether Bugzilla is for them.
+
+.. _getting-help:
+
+Getting More Help
+#################
+
+If this document does not answer your questions, we run a
+`Mozilla forum <https://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/#support-bugzilla>`_
+which can be accessed as a newsgroup, mailing list, or over the web as a
+Google Group. Please
+`search it <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/mozilla.support.bugzilla>`_
+first, and then ask your question there.
+
+If you need a guaranteed response, commercial support is
+`available <http://www.bugzilla.org/support/consulting.html>`_ for Bugzilla
+from a number of people and organizations.

+Document Conventions
+####################
+
+This document uses the following conventions:
+
+.. warning:: This is a warning—something you should be aware of.
+
+.. note:: This is just a note, for your information.
+
+A filename or a path to a filename is displayed like this:
+:file:`/path/to/filename.ext`
+
+A command to type in the shell is displayed like this:
+:command:`command --arguments`
+
+A sample of code is illustrated like this:
+
+::
+
+    First Line of Code
+    Second Line of Code
+    ...
+
+This documentation is maintained in
+`reStructured Text
+<http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickstart.html>`_ format using
+the `Sphinx <http://www.sphinx-doc.org/>`_ documentation system. It has
+recently been rewritten, so it undoubtedly has bugs. Please file any you find, in
+the `Bugzilla Documentation
+<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Bugzilla;component=Documentation>`_
+component in Mozilla's installation of Bugzilla. If you also want to make a
+patch, that would be wonderful. Changes are best submitted as diffs, attached
+to a bug. There is a :ref:`Style Guide <style-guide>` to help you write any
+new text and markup.
+
+.. _license:
+
+License
+#######
+
+Bugzilla is `free <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html>`_ and
+`open source <http://opensource.org/osd>`_ software, which means (among other
+things) that you can download it, install it, and run it for any purpose
+whatsoever without the need for license or payment. Isn't that refreshing?
+
+Bugzilla's code is made available under the
+`Mozilla Public License 2.0 <http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/>`_ (MPL),
+specifically the variant which is Incompatible with Secondary Licenses.
+However, again, if you only want to install and run Bugzilla, you don't need
+to worry about that; it's only relevant if you redistribute the code or any
+changes you make.
+
+Bugzilla's documentation is made available under the
+`Creative Commons CC-BY-SA International License 4.0
+<https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/>`_,
+or any later version.
