Pete Zaitcev gave me some great advice, when I joined Red Hat. Manage
your bugs aggressively, sometimes with a sharp and pointy stick.
Otherwise they will become unkillable nine-headed hydra with a life of
their own, as the bugs drift further and further away from the original
bug reporter's bug. ;-) Open new bugs if a poster's issue seems
remotely different from the base bug. Bugzilla can do fancy stuff like
linking bugs into dependency chains, and also marking bugs as
duplicates. The power is yours :)
