I'm assuming you meant +1 to making it a FT position, but you didn't quote any text so I cannot be sure ;-)

I didn't want to quote the full email ;) I agree that reviewing the thousands of open bugs* will take a lot of time. Although if it means the position should be full time would mostly depend on the importance given to the backlog.
I agree with this mailing list being a proper place to discuss about the bugmeister position. After all, this is the people with which the bugmeister should work (tech staff + tech community).

Then the right people should be pointed to follow this thread (whoever they are, the CTO for a bugmeister position would have been a fair guess). On the other hand, if this bugmeister discussion was about the budget allocated to its salary instead of the work it has to do, I would move that to foundation-l not wikitech-l
