Yes - and I'll be back (to that whole thread) - sorry I've been traveling
extensively, and am trying to settle down for a month on subjects such as
flood; one of my colleagues is also hacking on it, so I should really be
able to devote some attention.

On this subject - do we need a Bugzilla space for this?

Right now we have "Apache httpd-1.3" and "Apache httpd-2.0" products in
bugzilla, and none of the subcategories fit really well.

I'd love to see the second renamed "Apache httpd-2" to avoid confusion.

Do we want a new Bugzilla category such as "Apache httpd test" with the
only subcomponents of "flood", "perl-framework" (or test-framework) and
"specweb plugin"?  Or would it be more useful to have "Apache httpd flood"
(or simply httpd flood) as a specific category?
