It's really not too complicated, but the setup would be much more
familiar to software developers than the average user.

1) Get an account at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/createaccount.cgi
2) It's operated by Wikimedia. Which server it runs on I don't know,
and doesn't seem relevant.
3) Entering a new bug is relatively straightforward. There are
billions of fields, but you should ignore most of them. Just make sure
you get the product right (normally MediaWiki). And if you're feeling
confident, choose the component.
