      static information in the

      versions table for example), or to the 
      <SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"constants"</SPAN

      encoded in <TT

      the cached content from the data directory (by doing a

      gets automatically regenerated whenever it's more than
      an hour old, so Bugzilla will eventually notice your changes by itself,
      but generally you want it to notice right away, so that you can test
      things.</P
