Reporting issues about how you find the tracker difficult to use, when you
haven't made any contributions is not helping.
It takes up time from people triaging the bugs, and figuring out if they need
to be urgently looked at.
Please can you stop opening issues like these until you've made a code
contribution. If you're looking for stuff to work on, the docs at
https://github.com/php/doc-en and https://github.com/php/doc-fr are there for
PRs.

Description:
------------
This tracker categorizes tickets about meta-issues affecting this very issue
tracking system in the "PHP.net Website problem" package. There are many issues
with the ITS, but even more other php.net problems, so identifying the
ITS-specific issues is time-consuming. Several reporters tried to use
conventions about ticket titles to distinguish tickets about bugs.php.net, but
some are undesirable, and there are too many:
Starting with "[bugsnet]": https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78962
Starting with "[bugs.php.net]": https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67657
Starting with "[Bug tracker]": https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70411
Starting with "[BugTracker]": https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70411
Starting with "Issue tracker:": https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77354
Starting with "ITS:": https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77356
My own preference is for "Issue tracker", but even I had to use "ITS", because
my title wouldn't fit in the limited number of characters allowed had I used
the former.
Adding a unique way to specifically categorize ITS tickets would uniformize and
greatly diminish the risk of duplicate reports.
