If the topic of how well the bug database works can go on for this long,
I feel like this may be another hurdle (haha) in the HURD's development.

To the maintainers and large contributors: Would using another bug
database system that is equally usable to the group be worth
considering? I think everyone that contributes is dedicated enough to
compromise in this respect.

Many volunteer free software projects highly benefit from an effective
bug database, especially when there is a large user-base. The speed at
which a bug is discovered, and widely known as closed seems to be
important. The whole world knows this though.

Thanks for reading!
