All BTS suck

Marc, this is not a problem with the Debian BTS, but with BTS in general. What you describe also happens with Mozilla and Gnome BTS, speaking of those I know. The Mozilla Bugzilla is indeed an example of what NOT to try to replicate, it's probably even worse than the Debian BTS.

    That is what I said in my first entry. I don’t want to duplicate their BTS (and I really hate bugzilla). But we need to use our BTS, and we may need more features (like an easier escalation to upstream) to make it easier to keep it clean.

    My point is there’s nothing to learn from them. They have the same problem.
