BugZilla is unusable. It is far too complex and the interface sucks big 
times, so it is no wonder that developpers hardly use it.

Besides, it only works if there is someone who actually performs triage. 
This wasn't apparently the situation and now there are plenty of 
unchecked bugs and it would take days to sort the mess.

As for Trac, if we let users fill in bug reports, we'd get plenty of 
unconfirmed poor bug reports, and quickly it would become unusable. 
Besides, most of it is intended for developers only.

For bug reports with patches, if nobody applies them at first, just 
repost them and insist that the first report was ignored. These things 
happen and will continue to happen because the VideoLAN project is 
undermanned.
