You can't. Qt has two different tracking systems, one is for actual
development tasks, which they expose as task-tracker. The other is used by
the support people to keep track of open requests and stuff like that,
thats what the automated reply is from. Any issue number starting with N is
from that internal support-tracking software.

When one gets a task-number for a specific problem its always a
non-automatic response, including both a link for open-source and
commercial users of Qt.

Yeah, spreading FUD is really funny.

PS: No I'm no Nokia (or former TT) employee, but I'm on the side of the
people that didn't have many bad experiences with their task-tracker.
