Okay, this part suggests another way of dividing things... it might be appropriate for some platform-specific categories(?). Frank (for example) might not want to be bothered by MacOSX bugs, while I might prefer to ignore Windows-based reports...
But I want to ignore Windows-based reports, too! ;)
Now seriously, platform issues are sometimes hard to deal with. I'm regularly getting questions like "how to compile/use fiiwu~ on Windos", and in fact I don't know much about how to do this, so I'm refering those users to the list.
But those questions are not really bug reports. Or the bug is, that there are not binaries.
At the beginning I do not think that we get too much bug reports, so we can scale up the thing later.
And then, I think it is important that everyone sees the bug messages from each platform. This is a cross platform project, and if someone changes his code on Linux which makes it crash on Windows, I think the person should know it, even if it works on his platform.
Well, just 2 cents ...
