+Is Bison secure? Does it conform to POSIX?
+@end display
+
+If you're looking for a guarantee or certification, we don't provide it.
+However, Bison is intended to be a reliable program that conforms to the
+@acronym{POSIX} specification for Yacc. If you run into problems,
+please send us a bug report.

+I can't build Bison because "make" complains that "msgfmt" is not found.
+What should I do?
+@end display
+
+Like most GNU packages with internationalization support, that feature
+is turned on by default. If you have problems building in the @file{po}
+subdirectory, it indicates that your system's internationalization
+support is lacking. You can re-configure Bison with
+@option{--disable-nls} to turn off this support, or you can install GNU
+gettext from @url{ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/} and re-configure
+Bison. See the file @file{ABOUT-NLS} for more information.

+I'm having trouble using Bison. Where can I find help?
+@end display
+
+First, read this fine manual. Beyond that, you can send mail to
+@email{help-bison@@gnu.org}. This mailing list is intended to be
+populated with people who are willing to answer questions about using
+and installing Bison. Please keep in mind that (most of) the people on
+the list have aspects of their lives which are not related to Bison (!),
+so you may not receive an answer to your question right away. This can
+be frustrating, but please try not to honk them off; remember that any
+help they provide is purely voluntary and out of the kindness of their
+hearts.

+I found a bug. What should I include in the bug report?
+@end display
+
+Before you send a bug report, make sure you are using the latest
+version. Check @url{ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/bison/} or one of its
+mirrors. Be sure to include the version number in your bug report. If
+the bug is present in the latest version but not in a previous version,
+try to determine the most recent version which did not contain the bug.
+
+If the bug is parser-related, you should include the smallest grammar
+you can which demonstrates the bug. The grammar file should also be
+complete (i.e., I should be able to run it through Bison without having
+to edit or add anything). The smaller and simpler the grammar, the
+easier it will be to fix the bug.
+
+Include information about your compilation environment, including your
+operating system's name and version and your compiler's name and
+version. If you have trouble compiling, you should also include a
+transcript of the build session, starting with the invocation of
+`configure'. Depending on the nature of the bug, you may be asked to
+send additional files as well (such as `config.h' or `config.cache').
+
+Patches are most welcome, but not required. That is, do not hesitate to
+send a bug report just because you can not provide a fix.
+
+Send bug reports to @email{bug-bison@@gnu.org}.

+Will Bison ever have C++ support? How about Java or @var{insert your
+favorite language here}?
+@end display
+
+C++ support is there now, and is documented. We'd love to add other
+languages; contributions are welcome.

+@display
+What is involved in being a beta tester?
+@end display
+
+It's not terribly involved. Basically, you would download a test
+release, compile it, and use it to build and run a parser or two. After
+that, you would submit either a bug report or a message saying that
+everything is okay. It is important to report successes as well as
+failures because test releases eventually become mainstream releases,
+but only if they are adequately tested. If no one tests, development is
+essentially halted.
+
+Beta testers are particularly needed for operating systems to which the
+developers do not have easy access. They currently have easy access to
+recent GNU/Linux and Solaris versions. Reports about other operating
+systems are especially welcome.
