While reordering the DnD I encounter quite a few

of them in a file, bug should I report lots of small
glitches there?
Also, what is considered appropriate for the bug database?
* CVS versions? or only released versions?
* usr-apps etcetera? or only the core libraries?
I think the a bug database is a great tool, but at the
moment it seems unused.
It isn't used that much, which is a bummer. I like it a lot more since
it easier to keep track of bugs that are outstanding (currently I just
try to save them in a mail box, but sometimes I don't get a chance to
look at them or know if someone else has fixed them).
Also I was told that the current system on savannah is not really a bug
tracker but more like a 'help-line' for users. But it's the best we have.
I would try to report bugs that are related together, if possible.
