+=== What is a Bug? ===
+It is important to properly identify bugs as these need to be fixed in priority to implementing enhancements. Sometimes it may not be clear if issues you encounter are in fact bugs. The following ARE bugs:
+* If there is an error message reported:
+ * Web2Py "Internal Error" Pages 
+ * Internal Server Error (50x errors)
+ * Broken links (404 errors)
+ * JS errors
+* If you are not actually able to perform an action due to an error in the system. There may be uncertainty around this as it may not be 100% clear if Sahana Eden is meant to support this action.
+These are NOT bugs, but should be reported as enhancements:
+* Incorrect form validation
+* Usability Enhancements
+
+Any issues which are not bugs may be reported as enhancements.
