our Bugzilla is currenly a mess and will still take months to get into
a good state, if that will ever be possible at all.
We have so called "release blockers" that acually have been known at
release time of releases. So per definition those can't be release
blockers.

Also we set targets quite wildly, nearly no one can hold those dates.

other problems:
* bug reusage: bugs for one issue evolve into another one
* one issue per bug: we often have reports that cover several isues

well, if the reporters don't respond after some months I'm sinply going
to mass-close those. Up to then they don't show up in my queries.

Quality is imho a bigger problem. :/
But yeah, more fixes are always a good thing.
