I don't think this behavior is that bad, but it does contain one annoying bug. AFAICT, follow-up messages sent to the bug tracker aren't forwarded to emacs-devel. However, if I send a message to emacs-devel and CC the bug tracker (so that the message is stored), duplicate messages are posted on emacs-devel: one from me, and one from the bug tracker. Is there a way to change the bug tracker to fix this behavior? > I also don't see the need for tracker control messages to be sent to > bug-gnu-emacs, but I'm less sure about that.

I'm pretty happy with the bug tracker, apart from the funkiness described above. Maybe we should move it to Savannah and begin using it officially. Stefan, WDYT?
