Hi,

"temporary storage" aren't the good words, I'm actually starting an
application for "Fedora Usability" called "fusability". It's like bug-buddy
but allow to produce usability repports. Yes actually I can host this on a
my web access because it's not usable.

Bugzilla allow to conserve patchs or other? I don't think that it's the best
solution but now that can be acceptable because the Usability Sigs has an
existance of 2 weeks.

The "Usability packages" is a good idea, We can produce "unofficial"
packages for testing the application  massively...

I'm agree with you, cvs is not essential actually because usability is too
young but that can be good for a efficient and productive work. Send the
sources by mail etc... is not really great.
