I don't think that anyone thinks that gnome-dev a good solution for
bugreporting. (After all it should be a developer-list for
devel-discussions).

I think that we should start using a bug-tracking system and that we
should start doing so soon. As I've said before, Bugzilla is really
powerful but can also be a large step for new users. However, this is
with the default-interface, we could do our own interface that's easier
to use.

Someone also mentioned roundup (http://roundup.sourceforge.net/). I
tried to get it running on my Gentoo-machine but it didn't want to play.
Someone (and me) should give it another try.

IMHO, we can choose either as long as it works. I also think that we
should use this system for our "todo"'s, in other words, start using the
bug-tracking system for what we currently uses Dev-wiki.

I'm not sure about Roundup but bugzilla can also be used for handling
ebuilds (instead of gentoo-ebuild-list).
