This is RHAT's baby, Bugzilla, so I take it that they would be a serious Admin to this and would have the ability to pull data as they want, without asking XFree86 for it. I can see that RHAT would then claim that they have less bugs per bugzilla reporting etc and so forth and then would make lists like: Top Buggy Code Top Bug Squatter and other absurdities ad nauseam. My concern is where does an extent example exist of how Bugzilla is being used by a non-RHAT owned project, like XFree86. And finally, if RHAT has Bugzilla on their own distro right now, why do you need us at all? You already have the setup, the information etc. I don't see why we need to be involved, either using or reporting to it. Tell me or preferably show me how I am wrong.
