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 :)
