forcing registration for bug reporting is bad
but that rules out github (and i think all other
options mentioned so far)
i don't see an easy solution
the minimum requirements are:
- search/browse the bug database (through web)
- query a bug by unique id (through permanent url)
- open a bug (by mail)
- comment on a bug (by mail)
- get notifications about a bug (by mail)
- simple administration (change status, mark duplicates)
i think server side email applications are hard to do
because of mime parsing and other smtp difficulties
and they can have huge latency
