Is there any newer bug tracking systems which should be considering?

If we keep bugzilla then we are still running a system where people do
everything twice. They email patches to OE mailing list for review and
also have to file them into bugzilla. If we could somehow combine the
two functions. Effectively integrate patchwork and bug tracker into one
system. I have no idea if such a bug tracker exists.

Also I might suggest we shift to launchpad or another hosted solution.
That way we can lesson the load on the admin team.

Im happy to step up and be a bug massager if we decide to run with a
bugtracker, but I think we need to decide if that is the correct
workflow for us first.

I'd like to see a place for users to report build failures and other bugs in the meta-data. I do not think it should be for reporting distro issues.

Patchwork is working well for tracking patches already, so we should not encourage people to post patches to bugzilla.

Having clear policies for what kind of bugs we track and how they are managed is critical. An example of a management task is assigning bugs to individuals, some people may be OK with having a bug master assign them bugs and others may not. Peoples wishes should be respected.
