I close those as unreproducible with not enough information provided.  I'm
not sure if the Skobbler folks follow the lists, though it seems like it
would be helpful if folks are logged in get a notification when someone
comments or closes a bug if it doesn't do this already.  Perhaps
disallowing anonymous bug reports from apps would be of additional help.

I wouldn't go that far.  It is possible to find diamonds in the rough that
