Particularly, I believe, the way it suggested to have the bugs in the same branch as source to keep them in sync.

I wish them good luck. The problem is, that this is /not/ distributed, because they use sequential bug numbers, which they'd have to change if they wanted to use Git. -- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec
