Re: [platform-ant-dev] Bugzilla practices proposal

Sounds good to me...we have been doing something similar to this in Ant land

Very useful for verification and for rollback.

Remembering to do fully qualified names for deletion is a good trick

We really need to write a plugin that will do all this work for us :-)
