[Swift-devel] swift versions

[Michael Wilde]

Hi Sarah, 

Its great that you are cleaning out bugzilla! I'm eager to get it back in general use as our team-wide "to do" tracker. Or at least to try that method and see if it works well for us. 

I have not been seeing any emails from bugzilla, though. Can you see how to configure it so that I get emails on all changes? (same for anyone else on the team who wants to see "everything" - I suspect Justin and Mihael might as well). 

Thanks! 

Mike

Right. I think 1.0/4.1.7 should go out soon.
