Does anyone have examples of using python-bugzilla to set release notes?

Haven't confirmed, but it's probably just:

  bz.update([list, of, ids], {"cf_release_notes": "my release
notes"})

If you're ever wondering what the bugzilla field name is, you can do

  bugzilla query --bug_id $bugnum --raw

And check the attribute names

err, that should be bz.update_bugs

I tried to do

     updates = bugzilla.build_update(\
         cf_doc_type = "v8_cf_doc_type",
         cf.release_notes = note)
     bugzilla.update_bugs(bugid,updates)

but I keep getting failures since this is a rh extension. does the 
bz.update path bypass the check of known attributes?

build_update doesn't have an explicit option for the custom RH release_notes
field, and a bunch of other custom fields as well. All build_update does is a
more user friendly way to create a suitable dictionary to pass to update_bugs.
So you can also do:

update = bugzilla.build_update(...)
update["cf_release_notes"] = "foo"
bugzilla.update_bugs(ids, update)

Thank you.. I went with this:

     updates = {\
         "cf_doc_type ": "v8_cf_doc_type",
         "cf_release_notes" : note}
     bugzilla.update_bugs(bugid,updates)
