Community members can file bugs there, but for most of the OS, bugs won't
get worked on until they land in bugster since most OS engineers simply
don't see bugzilla bugs.   (In part because of organizational bugs inside
Sun that have failed to get the word out, in part because the current bug
categories were set up as a quick expedient set, not a useful set - "kernel",
"software", and "hardware" are far too broad to be useful.   Since all the
tools used by consolidations such as ON, SFW, & X still require bugster bug
reports, there's been little incentive to fix those issues.   The few groups
using bugster don't use tools like WebRTI and have set up more fine grained
subcategories to allow efficiently getting notice to the engineers involved
with an area.)
