    are the broadest category in Bugzilla, and tend to represent real-world
    shipping products. E.g. if your company makes computer games, 
    you should have one product per game, perhaps a "Common" product for 
    units of technology used in multiple games, and maybe a few special
     products (Website, Administration...)</P
><P
>Many of Bugzilla's settings are configurable on a per-product
    basis. The number of "votes" available to users is set per-product, 
    as is the number of votes
    required to move a bug automatically from the UNCONFIRMED status to the
    NEW status.</P

>Enter the name of the product and a description. The
        Description field may contain HTML.</P
></LI
></OL
><P
>Don't worry about the "Closed for bug entry", "Maximum Votes
    per person", "Maximum votes a person can put on a single bug",
    "Number of votes a bug in this Product needs to automatically get out
    of the UNCOMFIRMED state", and "Version" options yet. We'll cover
    those in a few moments.
