Usually for GCC (which is what I'm working on) I monitor the upstream bugzilla for bugs affecting the openSUSE compiler as well as making sure that bugs filed on the Novell bugzilla are forwarded upstream. This is ideally the way it should work for all bugs filed in Novell bugzilla if there is upstream development and bugreporting infrastructure. To what extent this happens for GNOME bugs at the moment I don't know, but I am sure that help from the community to improve the situation with Novell-bugzilla-only bugreports would be appreciated. Maybe our GNOME people can clarify their policy?
