Any objections about me working on the bug system ?
I would like to setup a configuration file and have some db functions so that anyone who want to use the bug system scripts will be able to customize them quickly (I've experienced this issue).
It would be nice to know what would you like to add / move around. I don't object against you cleaning up the system, it needs serious cleanup... I have long been planning to make the automatic messages really be custom according to the category (so if a website bug is closed with an automatic reason, it will not say, that new snapshots of PHP will be available shortly). But I never had time to implement this...
In a first shot, I would like to :
- be register_globals = Off compliant
- have a single call to mysql_connect for all the scripts (this way we don't have to hunt them to change the user and password)
- add some constants that will allow the customization and put them in a config.php file (db_user, db_passwd, db_name)
- replace mysql_fetch_array(foo, MYSQL_ASSOC) by mysql_fetch_assoc
- replace (include|require)_once by (include|require)
- clean up some code
