I don't see that it's necessarily a bad thing, though, to try to
educate forum users (or users who come in through any venue) in how
to report
bugs. DenverD directs a fair number of people to bugzilla to file
bugs, and has some success in getting responses back from people
saying that they have filed a bug.

As a passer-by, the biggest problem with bugzilla is that it requires
creation of an account. Debian BTS is a lot more non-subscriber
friendly and allows to converse via mail, not needing to specially
open a browser.

And actually, forum users also have to create an account - that same
account is used for access to bugzilla - so in some ways, the forum
users are one step further along in that process because they already
have the account to create bugs. :-)


That's perfect - there really should not be anything preventing an
ml-fora bi-gating then.
