My main worry is losing track of patches sent to Bob and the mailing
lists.  No offense, but I've gotten much better response out of bugs
submitted to bugme than to the mailing list.  And I'm less likely to lose
them as well.

I believe my solution will be to obfuscate any non-Linux identifying
features from future bug submissions to keep them out of sight of the
pedants^H^H^H^H^H^H^H admins who have nothing better to do than cancel
legitimate bug reports.
