IMO, bugzilla isn't too bad as web UIs go. I have _seen_ bad, and bugzilla doesn't even come close. But I see your point. > The general idea of handling bug reports in a more structured way > might be nice, though. That's what triggered it for me. I usually post enhancement requests here, and outright, reproducable, bugs on gnus-bug. When I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, I keep a little conversation with myself here, and hope that a developer picks it up, if it actually turns up or not. But there's a feeling that things are lost in the noise from general discussion. There are things that have been debated earlier that keeps popping up again.
