[Bugzilla-announce-list] Product.get RPC change

Hello,

If you don't know what RPC is, or don't use the Product.get RPC call
in Red Hat Bugzilla, you can ignore this message. Otherwise, please
read on for important information.

We try to avoid changing Red Hat Bugzilla RPC calls outside major
upstream releases, but we are going to make one change that you should
be aware of.

The Product.get RPC call will no longer return the flag types of
components by default. This will see a vast improvement in the time it
takes to return other information about product(s), especially for
products that have thousands of components.

If you wish to still receive the flag types information for products,
you will need to add either 'components' or 'components.flag_types' to
the include_fields or extra_fields arrays.

Note: If you currently have 'components' in the include_fields array,
you can add 'components.flag_types' to the exclude_fields array to
exclude just the flag types.

This change is expected to go live next week, as part of Red Hat
Bugzilla 4.4.0005.
