Submitting bug-reports to bugzilla is a very good idea indeed, but I refuse to check the bug database for new entries daily. We need to change Bugzilla so it sends a useful mail report about new bugs being entered to bugs@xxxxxxxx like the old system did or the new system will be pretty useless. > It isn't hard for the developers to see the bugs that have been entered or > modified recently.

Yes please. Salut, Sven
