Another issue I have with Bugzilla is the fact that you have no idea how
things are going. e.g.  https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512990
Several months of nothing and that is not the only one.

So I can understand that people start thinking that bugzilla is not where
any conversation takes place and then logicaly think they should go to a
mailinglist.

When people are pointed away from one place and do not get any reply in
the place that they were pointed to, why would they bother?

During the conference a lot was said about wanting more feedback from
users. Well, the users would like to have feedback from the developers as
well. Unfortunatly it is a two way street and as we have seen, developers
are very good in communication, despite what they and others claim. ;-)
