 most of the work we do in the XS (and a growing chunk of the work in the
 XO I'm sure) is tracking upstream software versions. As we stabilise our
 code, we'll start seeing bug reports that are actually about upstream
 bugs.

 The Ubuntu team have been at this for far longer than we have, and have
 added to Malone (which drives launchpad.net) the smarts to track upstream
 bugs - it can talk a bit to bugzilla, debbugs, etc. Do you know much about
 this? Can we have something similar in trac? Is anyone in the trac dev
 team thinking about this?
