Same interface, maybe a few more options for setting states like
NEEDINFO, etc. There are alternative interfaces to use for finding,
like RSS, etc as well if that's what works for you, but the majority
of work happens through the web interface.

Depends on who gets it. As a triager, I have a variety of machines
available for blowing away (all VMWare VM's - so testing hardware
specific bugs is for me a non-starter (but I'm not expected to do
that). I have fairly minimal kickstart installs for F7, F8, and
rawhide that I can morph into whatever I need them to be once
installed.

Nope, bugmail and searches.

They go on to other things - they generally have many, many bugs that
they are working on, so a lack of response on one does not mean they
do not have other things to work on.

I don't think that the exact code used on b.r.c is available (grr - I
want it for different reasons). I however do have an installation of
upstream Bugzilla (3.0 something - Red Hat's is a heavily modified
2.18 right now, with an upgrade to 3.2 in the works), while not
exactly what's used, it's close enough for many tasks (and so far
divergent in other areas as to be useless)

Hmm, I can't seem to get the help that's supposedly available :).
I've just used the source to learn how to use it, requires a minimal
understanding of python...
elif action == 'info':
p.add_option('-p','--products',action='store_true',
help='Get a list of products')
p.add_option('-c','--components',metavar="PRODUCT",
help='List the components in the given product')
p.add_option('-o','--component_owners',metavar="PRODUCT",
help='List components (and their owners)')
p.add_option('-v','--versions',metavar="PRODUCT",
help='List the versions for the given product')
