Yeah, that's why I was wondering about the kde-woman db. There were some 
suggestions for alternatives on the kde-www list, but what I like about 
bugs.kde.org is that it is a KDE-wide system, used and maintained. 

- divide et impera ? -
I was thinking of providing custom "views" of the kde bug database to directly 
provide a configurable subset of the database content based on the product, 
something like when you select a product or run the wizard. Such a view can 
be embedded in the product's website, and be maintained by the product's 
active community with relevant extra information(kde-women, kde-webteam, 
kde-quality (check JJs) etc). Of course, bugs.kde.org should still be 
available and it would be the place were everything is put together.

Benefits: easy access to file bugs, manage and maintain "bugs" database for 
kde teams and provide more meaningful representation/extra information.
Drawbacks: view system needs to be developed and has to be easy to maintain so 
they will actually be maintained

Actually, tasks/jobs database would be a better name than bugs database, since 
not only bugs are managed and it's more positive ;) .

:) I would like to get involved with kde-women, although the upcoming week(s) 
I will not be available that much. Thanks again.
