Re: bug-cfengine list/SF integration

[John Sechrest]

I think one of the key questions is if it makes sense to track the
bugs in SF. If it does, then we should all be putting them up there.

Is there something we can do that will make using the SF bug tracker
easier?

 % 
 %         So please sign up or log in before you submit your bug.
