*sigh* - that was mostly ment as a joke and not a really serious
comment. However the idea I actually had with BZ back in the days was
not to use it as a full fledged tracker(in the sense of exposing it to
users or developers)
Instead I would just use it as the background engine that does nothing
more than being subscribed to -bugs, tracks the stuff there and provides
an summary export about (not)replied to reports. If somebody later on
wants to annotate the emails/reports there (as in solved,open,moved to
todo,not a pg core question,whatever) fine - if not fine as well :)
