Description David Lawrence 2010-07-19 18:54:38 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently the front page dashboard (frontpage.cgi) is integrated as a custom code change to Bugzilla. It should be moved out into an extension instead so that the core Bugzilla code can stay unaltered as much as possible. This way people can
download and use the extension without using Red Hat's full code base.

The extension will need to update the namedqueries table to add the column needed by frontpage as well as update the userprefs.cgi?tab=saved screen to
add the UI elements.
