In Mozilla land, bugzilla is used for everything from bug management, patch management (it is the repository on which people indicate who'se reviewed what patch, when it was checked in, etc.), mailing-list-proxy and random banter (e.g. the "give hyatt $50" bug), user feedback mechanism (via bug voting, which AFAICT doesn't "work") as well as general project management. I think it's a lousy tool for project management, but then again I think all the tools I've seen are lousy tools for project management =). It is a feature that bugzilla is corruptible that way, one which would be good to have in the new system. The key low-level feature which enables this is keywords and a peer-enforced policy rather than rule-based policy (as in "_please_ don't change milestones if you're not part of the PDT team" or such). --david
