Actually my dream in life is to do reports based on bug lifespan (i.e. time between a bug was filed till it was closed) -- I'm interested in how this number varies with bug severity, who filed it, yada yada. The problem is there is no good way to measure this time.
I'm a little lost on what the different files do -- do mboxes exist for all bugs? I've been relying on the log/summary files assuming that everything I need to find should be there -- do you have a better idea?
