Any such frontend must not be worse than reportbug at actually gathering information and providing real contact information for the submitter. I personally don't think one for submission will ever be as useful as reportbug, which is why I've never worked on it myself, and why I've marked #277744 wontfix. > Hence I would feel more confident in proposing the project if > someone with such knowledge join me in co-mentoring the project, in > case an interested student shows up. I'm not averse to helping out, but you'll pretty much end up working with me or someone else with an [EMAIL PROTECTED] hat to actually implement it anyway.

This feature has to be implemented as an add on module to debbugs or entirely separately. It can use the Debbugs:: modules if it must, but it really should pull any information it requires using the soap interface so it doesn't have to run on b.d.o. As far as submission, it should just operate by actually sending mail to a debbugs instance. In any event, the appropriate place to discuss this sort of thing is debian-debbugs@lists.debian.org, not really here.
