Finally, the moment you've all been waiting for is here!

perlbug (http://rt.perl.org/rt3/) has been upgraded to the latest and
greatest version (RT 3.6).

Here are some changes you might notice:
- a new shiny look
- no more auth.perl.org, we now authenticate directly from bitcard.org
- a public interface that doesn't require you to log in to see tickets
- a much more powerful search interface
- things that were slow before, are not quite so slow anymore
- saved searches

Likely, you'll discover some things are broken, or don't work the way
they used to. Here's a few we know about:
- Old bookmarked searches can't be used anymore. (Sorry!)
- Some bitcard accounts (with accented characters in their names)
can't login.
- we have a mild performance issue related to CSS caching.

If you run into issues, big or small, please send an email to
perlbug-admin at perl.org. Your message will be answered in the order
recieved.

-R

(special thanks to Jesse Vincent, Kevin Riggle, Thomas Sibley, and all
the rest of the gang at Best Practical, for their help, patience, and
for the rt.cpan.org customizations, which made this much easier than
it might have been)
