Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?
Trying to report #474 and #475 at devuan I got problems with reportbug
and the lacking possibility of forwarding a bug upstream. If I compare
the webinterface of gitlab/github for issues with reportbug and the
webinterface I judge the devuan/debian solution as some steps behind.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
I used the link at https://wiki.debian.org/reportbug-by-mail to have a
workaround to report an upstream bug to debian.


* What was the outcome of this action?
It worked.

* What outcome did you expect instead?
An easier and faster solution to report bugs, forward bugs upstream and
a project independent solution and standard for bugs. If a bug is referred by #bugnr
it should be replaced by a link in the webinterface.


Don't get me wrong, the bug reporting system is working, but it lacks
some features I got used to from other systems. The feature of creating
bugs offline and reporting it using a slow connection is still valuable.

## Some buzzwords I would like to see supported:

* a project independet XML standard for describing a bug
* forwarding a bug upstream/rejecting downstream
* connecting two bug reports on different server as if it was one
* splitting and joining bugs
* support for markdown
* webinterface with and without user registration
* support for offline/dial-in connections
* the choice to replace mail by XMPP
* white- and blacklist for the bug server of other projects to (not)
trust

Maybe the interface from the GitLab CE could be reused.
