FWIW, we tried to do this with GNOME, and found it bloody awful. We may not have
done it properly in the first place (and that's more than likely) but it was a
real pain trying to sync up the two databases, and we ended up polluting bugster
with a whole lot of crap. You'd really want a full time bug master to keep on
top of all of this.

In general this is an exceedingly difficult (impossible?) problem to solve, I doubt you were doing anything "wrong" - other than trying in the first place ;-)

If I suggested we should run two parallel but separate 'master' SCMs for ON, one inside Sun and one outside, and that we were going to allow people to simultaneously make changes to either one and then try to glue it all together into a consistent whole, I'd rightly be told that I was nuts. Having two bug systems would be no different.
