1545338 - README advertises landfill.bugzilla.org

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, defect)

Description

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

The root-level README file in Bugzilla advertises landfill.bugzilla.org as a place to play. That site doesn't exist anymore, so the link should be removed on all supported branches.

It appears to be mentioned a number of times in the tree... a link to the Bug Writing Guidelines that points there from the docs was just mentioned on Twitter.

The above post looks to me (beginner bug reporter) to be most thorough but it's 2 years ago.
I found a broken link today to 'landfill.bugzilla.org' in the HTTP Help files...
ver 5.0.6 in section 2.5.3 Advanced Search, at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/
and ver 5.1.2+ in https://bugzilla.readthedocs.io/en/5.0/using/index.html

These links should all be working again since landfill actually exists again. Well, not directly working, but they'll get you to a page that will still get you there, instead of an unknown domain, which is good enough for the old docs. :-)
