I think that makes sense, so I'm going to make a start on getting that set up. We're also talking about other bug day activities that might help get people excited about / involved in the project - like extending test coverage and writing documentation. We're lucky to have Pat's help on this, because it's hardly my strong suit :). Any other suggestions anyone has would be most welcome. I'm not sure yet exactly when this would happen, but it'd be soon - we don't want to be keeping even small bugs hanging around for too long.
