And we also have this wiki page:

It's like 4 buses came along at once :-), personally I don't actually care
what a given solution to what to do with crash stacktraces actually is, 
but I would like there to be a single solution for our desktop apps and 
start on connecting OOo up to it. 

Sun doesn't take OOo distro stacktraces into their own infrastructure hence
the short-term quick and dirty paste me in dialog which has ended up being a 
long-term hideous solution. I'd like to not quick suck so badly, so it's be
nice to have a common distro crashreporting infrastructure/policy. 

Even if that policy is "fedora doesn't want to know about them, send them directly
to the upstream project servers". that's be fine too and I could start on trying to
cook up a custom OOo solution.
