Agreed: NOTGNOME is very clear. INVALID is less so and sounds more
like a brush-off ("You say it's a bug, I say it's a feature/designed
that way/a property of the library and can't be changed.")

Two-fold: 

(a) what's going to happen to bugs.gnome.org? It will be around for
a few years but deprecated, and it will feed stuff into the new
Bugzilla?

(b) if the above is not the case (and I hope it is the case), provision
for (sorry, but I have to bring it up) emailed reports? People have
mentioned that Bugzilla has an email interface in its /contrib directory:
did you install it, or not?

Everything I snipped I either didn't understand fully (I'll leave it
to others to argue about semantics of OS names) or agreed with. Thanks
a lot for the effort. I wish I were in a position to offer to do
something useful like actually implement email myself: I am very
conscious I am again sitting on the sidelines saying "I want" :) So
thanks.
