In general, emacs-pretest-bug is only read by a small number of
active developers.

It's best to send reports about unreleased versions (CVS and
pretests) to emacs-pretest-bug.  "M-x report-emacs-bug" will do that
automatically for you, btw.

The lists are archived, although the archive for emacs-pretest-bug is
not publicly available (archives of bug-gnu-emacs are accessible via
mailman).

There's no bug-tracking system for Emacs.  It would be nice to have
one, but someone will have to volunteer to set up and maintain that.
