Well, fine, if it's an overlay on top of Bugzilla I guess that could
work.

I see nothing in those mockups that would address this, however. In
fact, the bug mockup specifically shows each report as related to a
single release.

The use cases I care about are exactly as I wrote: I need to be able to
look at a bug report and see what releases it expects. We need to be
able to set the status of the bug independently for each release it
affects - it could be WONTFIX for F-9, ASSIGNED for F-10 and FIXED for
Rawhide. We need to be able to associate it with reports in other bug
tracking systems, as LP does, and see the status of these other reports
directly from the Fedora report. And this needs to be searchable (I need
to be able to search for bugs which are NEW in F-10, and get the right
results).

(There's other things talked about in the text accompanying the bug
mockup that I might want to talk to you about, but I'll save that from
messing up this thread :>)
