Yeah, but more and more people now seem to be swearing only by
bugzilla and the way you phrased your previous message could be
misleading.

Marc and I have had a conversation in the last couple of months where I
have been talking him into moving forward to 3.3.x adoption. I suppose
his disappointment is partly my fault -- I did not anticipate that
"you can buy a new hardware for $400" or "your bugzilla hit is zero"
will welcome him :-/
And of course, I've also encouraged people to submit reports.
