--- Comment #6 from Buovjaga <todventtu at suomi24.fi> ---
Over here at LibreOffice-land, we do not want to reduce the number of users
contributing to bug analysis. We can only wish they would choose the right
platform from the start (ask.libreoffice.org for questions etc), but there is
certainly not a desire to sweep issues under the rug.

Bugzilla's outdated UI has made me worry about losing user contributions for
years. The problem is very real and it is unfortunate Mozilla did not sync
their changes with upstream in a timely manner (years ago). It is also
unfortunate that other organisations have not contributed to Bugzilla in order
to make harmonisation happen sooner. I can of course blame myself for lack of
initiative to push this in TDF & elsewhere.

When freedesktop announced GitLab, I contacted Daniel Stone, who maintains the
infra and pointed him to Bugzilla 6. He was not aware of the developments and
it is possible that the infrastructural decisions would have been different if
he had known about them.
