Thanks - it's obviously rather confusing. I can't modify the structure of 
the gna.org pages themselves - that comes from gna.org's system, but I could 
add a how to get help page linked from the main webpage.

I can enable and disable certain sections of the website, so I could disable 
either the "Bugs" or "Support" section, or both if we move to the github 
issue tracker (see below).

Unfortunately there are two passwords: the gna.org password to enter bugs or 
support items and the gna.org mailman password for subscribing to mailing 
lists. I can't do much about that unless I move the project elsewhere.

I would suggest using the mailing list rather than the bug tracker / support 
tracker as it is probably only seen by me on the tracker and is more 
searchable. There is a searchable interface using gmane which could be 
linked to:
http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.graphics.veusz.general

Alternatively, there is also a issue tracker on github, where we do the 
source control for development. This is far easier to use than gna.org, but 
I've not found previous entries in google:
