I definitely don't want anonymous bug reports (even for trivial ones).
I expect the problem is more that in order to submit non-anonymously
not only do you have to provide an email address, but you have to go
through the whole rigmarole of signing up as a SF user.

I don't think that the issue is so much the need for anonymity but the
signup hassle. (After all, if you really want to be anonymous you can
sign up under an alias or use an anonymizer; if you really don't want
to read the SF email you can direct the mail to /dev/null.)

Anyway, now that we've moved to our own Subversion, the trackers are
the lsat part of the Python infrastructure that remains on SF. There's
a perfectly capable replacement ready to wait on python.org. Maybe we
should finally switch to roundup so we can abandon SF?
