Description

He,

have you ever considered using mediumtext instead of text for the description field of a ticket ?

I've got tickets exceeding the 65536 characters limit, that have been tested ok when switching to mediumtext type (in my case, this is useful for an import from clearquest tickets).

I have checked Bugzilla, and they are using mediumtext pretty much everywhere (at least in version 3.2).

Attached is the modified schema file.

Thx,
Guillaume.
