I failed at making any sort of appreciable dent at this as a community based effort. If we were talking about just gnome+apps or just kde+apps or just x even you could probably build up a small team of community who as the gained experience become better at dealing with bug reports in that area of the distro. But distro wide its hard to capture enough initial interest from enough people with enough experience to cover all the bases. Even if there were enough monkeys to go around.. how do you train them all? We might get somewhere focusing on a corner of the fedora bugzilla space.. creating a small group of package shepards and then moving on to another corner every release. -jef
