You seriously think bugzilla is easier to use? I think the only
advantage of moving to bugzilla is that we would get less bug reports as
the interface would put most people off. Since using Flyspray, I
really, really, really hate having to file bug reports in bugzilla
(which is why I encourage users to file bugs upstream).
