Apache as authentication for Bugzilla users. This means that Bugzilla
now "supports" any type of authentication that Apache supports.
To use this, FIXME ----- EXPLAIN THIS BEFORE 2.20 RELEASE ----- FIXME
To use this, set the "user_info_class" parameter to "ENV" and, at a
minimum, set the "auth_env_email" parameter to the name of the
Environment variable that passes the authenticated user (usually
"REMOTE_USER"). If your webserver knows users' real names as well, also
set the "auth_env_realname" parameter. If you are using a true
single-signon system that assigns an identifier uniquely to an
individual, even across changes of email address, then set
"auth_env_id" to the name of that variable.
User-List Drop-Down Menus
@ -271,6 +279,19 @@ To enable this feature, set the "maxlocalattachmentsize" parameter to
a non-zero value, in editparams.cgi.
"User Visibility" Controls
--------------------------
It is now possible to prevent users from encountering all other users when
using user-matching or drop-down userlists. To enable this restriction,
enable the "usevisibilitygroups" parameter. Once this is enabled, each
group's permissions will include a new column for "visible." The members
of any group for which the group being edited is visible will be
able to user-match this groups's users or see them in dropdown lists.
This does not control who a user can CC on a bug, only who they can
see in the user-matching lists or drop-downs.
Miscellaneous Improvements

@ -404,6 +425,11 @@ Outstanding Issues
- Bug 285614: importxml.pl may be broken in many different ways.
- (No Bug Number) Note that the email interface (bug_mail.pl) in the
contrib/ directory has not been maintained (as it has no maintainer),
and so may not be working properly. Contributions are welcome, if
anybody would like to work on it.
Upgrading From An Older Bugzilla

disappear by 2.22. For more information on how to use the $dbh methods,
see: http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBI/DBI.pm
- The $::userid variable will be going away. Use Bugzilla->user->id instead.
- All global variables (any that start with $::, @::, or %::) will
be going away, eventually, hopefully they will be entirely gone
by Bugzilla 2.24.
