Right, prodded by chris whinging about not having good places to file
bugs I've added a load of products and components and versions to
bugzilla. Comments below. It should now be basically useable but
willno doubt need tweaking as time goes on.

This seems a lot of components for a relatively small bit of software.
I haven't added the first two as I think they come under platforms,
and I don;t actually understand what most of these mean. Does one of
them (e.g 'JTAG interface') mean 'JTAG dongle' (It should appear
somewhere)? Does 'Other devices' mean the CPU JTAG chain? What is 'IO
interface'? Look at the curent descriptions and suggest clarifications
please.

I'm not sure that we need a great pile of components for each bit of
software. They need to make sense to people filing bugs, and we are
not expecting insane numbers. A few basic categories is probably
sufficient, at least for now.

Again the component descptions could be improved (to explain to the
less expert which one they might be wanting).

Currently most of these are allocated to me by default, bflash/VHDL
stuff to Dave and XJTAG and PCB layout stuff to Chris. I would have
allocated stuff to nick but he has devoisly not signed up yet...

I don't think mail notification is working yet. I haven't seen any for the
bugs Chris filed. Chris, did you get mail about them?

If people find it hard to find a place to file a bug then mail me with
better product/component suggestions. I suspect every product will need
an 'other' or 'general' option.

Wookey
