I don't think this behavior is that bad, but it does contain one
annoying bug.  AFAICT, follow-up messages sent to the bug tracker aren't
forwarded to emacs-devel.  However, if I send a message to emacs-devel
and CC the bug tracker (so that the message is stored), duplicate
messages are posted on emacs-devel: one from me, and one from the bug
tracker.  Is there a way to change the bug tracker to fix this behavior?

I think this is harmless.

I'm pretty happy with the bug tracker, apart from the funkiness
described above.  Maybe we should move it to Savannah and begin using it
officially.  Stefan, WDYT?
