Hi,
Apache.org and project Harmony are using JIRA instead of "stone-aged"
Bugzilla. There is even a discussion on python.org about using JIRA as
bugtracking-system for Python-development:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-October/069 139.html
Why isn't eclipse.org using the (Java-based) JIRA-bugtracker?
The bugtracking-system is hyperimportant for eclipse.org. So why not using
the best? Bugzilla's HTML-interface is horrid.
Eclipse's bugtracker should be EASY-TO-USE and offer more and better
capabilities to both users and developers (i.e. REST-API)

I agree. Bugzilla may have even seemed horrid to me at first, but once I
got used to it (as a user of Eclipse and it's frameworks and an
occasional patch contributor), I found it very usable. For bugs I'm
watching, I mostly read the comments through e-mail and sometimes I also
use it through Mylar.
Also, all the Jira deployments I've used, including apache.org, seem
incredibly slow (but as I've not used it very often, that impression may
be just a coincidence).

I understand that this is no longer possible, unfortunately, so this will be a moot point. It's not about modern UI but rather about simple attention to detail and just plain good user experience. I will admit I'm a new Bugzilla user but I'm finding some real usability problems with it, such as the fact that you cannot edit your own comments.
Thanks for the feedback.
