I'd like to go one step further. There is not a single good bug/issue tracking system in existence. Yes, I'm completely serious too. I've come to believe that it's impossible to make one that anyone will be happy with. That includes most developers of tracking systems too (I've written one, and I hated it, though I liked it better than what I was using before).
It is true: all bug trackers suck ...
We can complain about this till the end of time. This discussion is even worse than bikeshedding discussions. At least with bikeshedding discussions you end up with a color for the bikeshed. When discussing bug/issue trackers you just end up with the same tracker, or another crappy tracker.
... however, some suck even more than others.
Given this, it should be possible to point it in the direction of sucking less.
What do we need to do to improve Bugzilla to our ends? What are the bugs in our Bugzilla installation? Can we agree on them? Is there anyone to work on them?
