+1 for debbugs.gnu.org. Flat text file has a tendency to grow stale in my experience, usually as a result of how they are maintained. Ok, then the question is how should we handle incoming bug reports? We use bug-inetutils for discussion, and bugs. It seems that bugs.gnu.org has two modes, so called Exclusive, and Non-Exclusive. In the Exclusive mode "Every mail sent to your bug list that is not in response to an existing bug creates a new bug report", this would be far from ideal. Non-Exclusive mode seems a bit cumbersome, since it would require a special address to be used for sending bugs. So either we move all discussions to another list, or setup a new list for bug reporting. See http://bugs.gnu.org/Using.html for details I suppose...
