[% terms.Bugzilla %] Data For Researchers

In the past we have made sanitized (that is, with all security [% terms.bug %] information removed) dumps of the bugzilla.mozilla.org database available to researchers from bona fide academic institutions who are willing to agree to our requirements for data handling and user privacy. We would much prefer individuals to request this service rather than attempt to spider the data using the web interface.

Because we are familiar with the [% terms.Bugzilla %] data and its possible flaws and biases, we are also happy to answer questions about it, and review papers which make use of it pre-publication. Please let us know if you would like us to do that.

To request a sanitized copy of the database, please file a [% terms.bug %] against bugzilla.mozilla.org/Administration with the following information included.

Once the request has been approved you will be asked to sign an Agreement for Receipt and Use of [% terms.Bugzilla %] Data. An administrator will then create the MySQL dump of the sanitized data and place it somewhere you will be able to access it.
