Distributions: Bug tracker, patch locations, (central) VCS, format

[Andy Hamberger]

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for starting this valuable first thread. I am sure we all were
happy to collate this info, if we had a wiki. That way we can collate
ideas to step by step unify in diversity, and otherwise have the
people in the know give the info, great thread! Honoured to partake.
