Search the dri-devel archives of half-year ago and you'll know why... In summary, we reached no agreement on how bugs should be reported/handled. Some people (including myself) had hope that a bug tracking system based on Bugzilla could gather more acceptance, but it was difficult to setup and we didn't had the human/techical resources to set it up. That's why I cheered this announcement, although I know that in the end it depends solely on the DRI developers - the availability of a Bugzilla bug tracking system doesn't warrant that history doesn't repeat, and everything just remains the same.
