5: LON-CAPA is open-source software where everyone is free to contribute to the
6: development. If you think of an enhancement, or find a bug in the system,
1.11 ! lira 7: please report it. LON-CAPA uses Bugzilla (\texttt{http://www.bugzilla.org/})
1.10 lira 8: to report and track bugs and enhancement requests. All reported bugs and enhancement
9: requests posted on Bugzilla are examined by the core LON-CAPA team. Having the
10: request in Bugzilla helps keep track of both bugs and requests, and is the preferred
11: method of reporting bugs and requesting enhancements. You'll be able to see how the developers respond to
12: the bug, which developer is currently responsible for it, and what the developer's intention
13: is.

1.11 ! lira 15: You must have an account to use Bugzilla. You can create an account at\\

1.10 lira 17: Once you have an open account, please search existing cases for related content before
