Right, different topic, I just want to point that Daniel Holbach is
spending a good deal of efforts on forwarding bugs upstream too and we
are trying the ubuntu-qa team to work on that too

The issue is to know if there is enough people working on triaging bugs
upstream to keep up with all those bugs that would be sent...

Right, people triaging upstream are always welcome and that would be
nice to have distributions contributing actively to that!

No offense, I was just trying to point that dumping load of bugs
directly upstream might not be a better solution than what we have at
the moment because of the workload it would put on the limit bugsquad
man power. Anyway as you said there lot to be done so let's everybody
work in that direction ;)
