The upstream Bugzilla 5.0 introduces a number of new features. We need to decide which of those features we wish to enable in Red Hat Bugzilla, and then: * Ensure that any required configuration changes make it into the right places (e.g. Ansible scripts). * Ensure that we list the new features in any announcements we make before and after the upgrade. * Ensure that test procedures are updated to include testing of those features.
https://www.bugzilla.org/releases/5.0/release-notes.html#feat Things of note: Features: Improved WebServices + Improved Caching using Memcached - Ability to Tag Bug Comments + Improved Bug Group Membership Checking + we already have this Improved Documentation for Users and Administrators + Other Enhancements: multiple aliases + any migration costs?? eTag headers, use in extensions? "All extensions which define new public WebService methods must list them in a PUBLIC_METHODS constant. Methods which are not listed there will not be accessible remotely." Might affect extensions. There are plenty of other changes but not of note for development or deployment.
