Let's pick this up again, but for Libtool only for now. [ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2011-02/msg00025.html ]

We do keep forgetting about bug reports, and we do have contributors that only work every once in a while, and for both it would seem to be useful to have a list of open issues. Eric had concerns that it would be difficult to tell which package a bug was against. The Sender: header shows this, however, so I don't see it as a big problem (unless your MUA cannot be configured to show this particular header). Or we could modify debbugs to provide some more hints. If there is no disagreement by, let's say Monday, Glenn could you then set up debbugs for the bug-libtool list?
