Ok. Then I would like to get bug reporting rights, I will personally
update the bugreport and make them more intelligent. Or, I can just
complain about each bug individually that is not formatted correctly.

What if our pnet team would to set a standard and require that the bugs
are reported correctly. It is not much work and makes a big difference
in the long term.

I have been looking into the bugtracker and gforge XML apis.
We should be able to create a bug reporting API soon.
