I don't think it will change. It shouldn't change. This is a much better system.
1)He could filter his mail so bugzilla mail went to a seperate folder
than cooker mail
Yup... this could be done.. but his issue was bandwidth.
There should then be a cooker-discuss list or something that is strictly for cooker discussion and *no* bug reports. Keep cooker as the place to discuss bugs and receive bug reports.2)Mandrakesoft could have a seperate ML just for bugzilla, so users can decide if they want to track only bug reports (via bugzilla) or other cooker discussion (via cooker) or both, at their discretion.
Of course, the usefulness of cooker-discuss would be greatly diminished due to the fact it would just have all the noise from this list... flames, politics, etc. The cooker list, by nature, should be discussing bugs/problems to begin with, which should all be routed via bugzilla for accounting purposes.
