imho, it doesn't make sense to try to support openchrome users outside 
of the openchrome-users at openchrome.org mailing list and openchrome's 
wiki. There's not a lot of man power in openchrome, it's simply not 
possible to duplicate the support effort for every distros out there. 
Time would be better spend improving openchrome's documentation.

Also, now that we have a release out, I expect all openchrome package 
distro maintainers will switch to it, and they'll instruct their users 
to report upstream bugs in openchrome's trac. There's too much more or 
less maintained packages around, that are made of more or less ancient 
snapshots of various branches. I'm not talking about Ubuntu in 
particular here, that's rather the impression I got from what I see on 
the net.
