137160 - Add Mozilla bug counts targetted by release to bugzilla.mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Dan]

A major reason why people visit MozillaQuest is to see how things are going with
the bug counts on the right of the page. It's often mentioned on mozillazine.org
- e.g. the latest at
http://www.mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=2185&message=33#33

I realise this info can be got at with a bugzilla query and doesn't mean much
apart from statistics, but there are people who just quickly want to see the
numbers and go to 'that' site to view them. These people go on to read the rest
of 'that' site, which is full of inaccurate info.

The people reading the bug counts do not necessarily use Mozilla and may be
basing their decision of whether or not to use Mozilla on the information
available on 'that' site.

If you could click a link on the title page of bugzilla.mozilla.org which took
you a page which displayed an automatically generated table or graph or just ran
a few queries of the count of bugs by release then it'd reduce the number of
people getting sucked into 'that' site. It'd also be straight from the horse's
mouth and more accurate. They would then go on to rest of mozilla.org, which is
full of accurate info.
