Missing whitespace between "running Bugzilla" -> [%+ terms.Bugzilla %]


>+  <li>Instead of throwing real errors, <kbd>collectstats.pl</kbd> would

This one looks ultra-minor to me. My vote to remove this item from the list.


>+  <li>The "[% terms.Bug %]-Writing Guidelines" page has been shortened
>+    and re-written.

My vote to remove it too.

Wait, no, this is wrong. Or rather incomplete. You don't need to move a bug to another product to clear groups. Any action would do it. So that's a much severe issue.

Comment 7

[Frédéric Buclin]

Could you please update the relnotes based on comment 6? Also, bug 257351 should be mentioned, especially for PostgreSQL users, either in the list of fixed bugs if I can get r+ on time, else in the outstanding issues.

Not a biggie, but this should be [%+ terms.Bugzilla %] here.
