Exactly. Bugzilla is not a communication tool, it's a process
management tool. The process in question is dealing with bugs. Don't
substitute filing a bug for communication. The main reason people end
up having these abrasive behaviours is they don't communicate
properly. If they did they'd find out they are actually very much
alike and agree on most things. Communication is (in order of
effectivity) in-person meeting, phone, irc, email. If you're not using
any of these tools you're not communicating effectively and you can't
expect things to go smoothly.
Denis.
