+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> As for documentation and translations, a while back I suggested a similar separation, but on reflection I think it would be more useful to have flags :
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> 1) problem with documentation (and not function)
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> These bugs would be best corrected by those with good documentation skills, not necessarily the average programmmer.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> 2) problem with translation (and not function)
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> These bugs would be best corrected by technical translators for the language in question. &#160;Again, not necessarily the average programmer.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I am working on a script intended to make it easyer to report bugs usefully.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Technically, would these flags be new fields,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> or standardized entries in the Keywords field,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> such as NEEDINFO in the present Mandriva bugzilla ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Just verified with bugzilla to make sure.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Documentation and translations are listed as options under &quot;components&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i> However any such bug could also be associated with another component, such as &quot;core packages&quot; or &quot;release media&quot;.
+</I>&gt;<i> We could even have translation bugs of documentation.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So it would seem better if these were independant flags, instead of options.
+</I>&gt;<i> It that case they would be new fields.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> As for security, there are already 2 such flags, at the bottom of the main bug entry page. &#160;(Under the title &quot;privacy&quot;.)
+</I>&gt;<i> Checking either of these flags will cause a bug to be hidden from most users, as explained beside the check boxes.
+</I>&gt;<i> (For this reason, it would be better to _not_ duplicate these particular flags elsewhere.)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> see <A HREF="https://qa.mandriva.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Mandriva">https://qa.mandriva.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Mandriva</A> Linux&amp;format=guided
+</I>
+The potential problem with new fields, which would be better,
+would be to make shure that they are accessible with&#160;the xmlrpc interface,
+that I use for my script.
+
+The inbuilt Keywords field, which does not appear on the Mandriva
+'guided' input page,
+but does appear on the 'expert' input page, is accessible with the
+xmlrpc interface.
+
+The xmlrpc interface does not seem to automatically have access to all fields.
+But it is difficult to be shure : the xmlrpc interface of Mandriva
+bugzilla does not work;
+and the Mageia bugzilla only has the default fields at present.
+I think I will have to create a local bugzilla to test that.
+
+&gt;<i> Good luck with your script :)
+</I>
+Thanks
