Description

By the day we go live - if possible, even a bit earlier - mailing out of the new credentials to existing BugZilla users needs to be handled. See also ticket #755 for a prerequisite.

Notification of active TDF members and LibreOffice community contributors will happen via the mailing lists. The big 'leftover' group will be bug reporters and others who have interacted with the LibreOffice project on FDO bugzilla, but won't hear about the migration without a ping to the Bugzilla users list.

Norbert suggested caution about how we proceed with this step, so I'll chat further w/Tollef about the best way for us to notify these people. Whenever we email them, we should do so from either an official TDF or FDO account.

Mailing out new credentials can only happen, of course, when the migration has been done, and we are sure BugZilla will stay on our servers.
The scope of this ticket is that you know how to send out new credentials from the new system. In other words: Are you savvy in what buttons to press to mass-mail all our users with new credentials?
Have you tested that with a couple of test users before, so we know it works? It would be extremely odd to have the new VM running, migration done, but nobody can login without requesting a password manually
So, please do test this with a couple of test users, to know it actually WORKS, before we do it on the live database

Note: We most certainly do not want to actively spam every email and user found in bugzilla

What is needed is a custom 'login page' so that when people try to log in after the migration they are explained that their password need to be 'reset' due to the migration.
the process is the same than a normal 'password reset'... but we still need to explain it and why...

This is critical on the 'logon failure page' as so most likely scenario for an 'occasion' user if our bugzilla will be to jsut show up on Bugzilla, business as usual, try to log in, and getting denied for 'wrong password'.. which will confuse the heck of people.... some of them will stop fighting and just 'reset' their password.. but I suspect a good part will get frustrated, try and try again, and abandon or finally show up on a random ML or irc channel, already quite pumped-up with frustration.

Handling credentials is much better suited for the password-reset mechanisms.

Agreed. You can see the current behavior if you try to log-in using an invalid password or account from the front page:
http://bugzilla-test.documentfoundation.org/buggs/

Note that the password-reset page is also configured to remove other form elements, and to include text focusing on resetting passwords (specifically) as a part of the Bugzilla Migration.

Custom login information is available here:
http://bugzilla-test.documentfoundation.org/buggs/index.cgi?GoAheadAndLogIn=1&migration_passwordreset=1#forgot

If users provide incorrect credentials when trying to log in, they are reminded about the Bugzilla Migration and invited to reset their password if they have not done so already (along with a direct link to the aforementioned page).
