The "new bug" form is very important because it's where every new bug comes from. It's important to keep it simple, however there are fields that could be useful at this step : - RPM Package field - URL field - Assign To (the way mandriva's bugzilla works in this regard is interesting : the assign to field is updated according to the RPM name, using the maintainer's db maybe) - CC field (to add a friend in CC directly during bug creation rather than needing to add them after bug creation) ? I'm not sure about the last two, but quite sure about RPM and URL fields, provided their meaning is explained on the page.
have you tried http://bugs.mageia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Mageia&format=guided ?
btw i need to fix the "New" button to point to http://bugs.mageia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Mageia&format=guided
Indeed I hadn't seen the guided form, because I used the "new" button. Changing the bug short description to "Make the 'new' link point to the guided new bug form"
