I am sure it has been discussed elsewhere multiple times. Here are my 2
cents anyway: A tool for bug management is extremely valuable. But there
are comfort drawbacks (e.g. sometimes high latency of bugzilla.kernel.org)
and a severe conceptional drawback compared to mailinglists: Any list
subscriber may join a discussion with an additional test case or even with
a new approach to solve a problem. The bug database lacks this kind of
input which is vital for a non-corporate project like Linux.
