Ditto. As I haven't been able to find a feature request for that, here is one! Dear reportbug maintainers, the contest of this request is the -devel (sub)thread started at <http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/07/msg00492.html>. In subsequent messages, it has been argued that permitting to report bugs via http (actually, via port 80 ...) would remove some more barriers to bug reporting, due to firewalling and the like. I understand that for such a feature mere support in reportbug isn't enough, so you might want to block this feature request by some other feature request on debbugs (I haven't yet checked whether the latter request already exists or not). Cheers PS that thread just made me try again the GTK2 UI of reportbug: it's just *great* nowadays, kudos! -- Stefano Zacchiroli -o- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.
