I realize this has been discussed before now, and that I should have made this comment earlier, but: "debbugs.gnu.org" is confusing name, because it implies we are tracking Debian bugs, when in reality, it's just the name of the bugtracker software -- like "bugzilla.gnu.org" or "cvs.gnu.org" or whatever. (But in those cases, there isn't another entity in the namespace already.) If we called it "bugs.gnu.org" instead, then the FQDN can stay the same even if the software behind it changes, and we wouldn't cause people to mistakenly think it holds Debian GNU/Linux bugs. -Karl
