Details

We should have a graveyard for bugs reports that we are marking INVALID and don't belong in legitimate products and components. I am referring mainly to bugs created by people testing their bugzilla foo in b.m.o instead of using landfill, but also just outright spam. A side benefit of putting these bugs in a graveyard is the bugs will stop showing up in a product's search results and statistics. Bonus points for creating some automatic mechanism that locks the reporter's account and/or sends them some form of automated mail, so that the person closing the bug report doesn't need to be writing the explaination.

I have created a new product called "Invalid Bugs" with a single component "General". We can now use this as a holding place for these types of bugs. Please tell the world. dkl

Thanks David. But, as best I can determine none of the products in classification "Graveyard" are Product list in user facing BMO
Flags: needinfo?(dkl)
