One of the truths of yesteryear has changed: Bugzilla now integrates with git

Note, the date of this blog :-)

A unified bug reporting / patch submitting interface for all sub projects
would indeed be helpful for clueless users like me.

ack.
One of the main themes in this thread is overload of central people 
of the project. Logical consequence should be to delegate as many
tasks to other persons rather than increase the load of one of the
main developers.
 
If I haven't overlooked something vital, buzilla does not need a root 
server to run on. Virtual servers with access to mysql database, pearl 
and python scripting and GB/month traffic got pretty cheap (~ 1.50 EUR/month).  
If nobody else steps forward, I might consider to donate and admin 
such a bugzilla server.
