[SailfishDevel] Is there any way to report a bug?

Hi Filip

Seconded.

I also think that a less than perfect bug tracker would be better than  
non at all.

Surely the primary purpose of this mailing list is Sailfish  
Development, but at the moment it is being flooded with bug reports  
that may be of interest to Developers @ Jolla, but are probably less  
interesting to developers outside Jolla.

I think it would be better if we started with a very simple process /  
system, and let that evolve with time and experience, rather than  
waiting for a perfect all singing-all-dancing bug tracker that will  
probably never come at all.
