And heck, even if we do have more #s than KDE, it is still (I think) pretty much a good thing- it indicates we've got people contributing. Oh, sure.

Personally I think that's it's quite good that bug buddy traces go into Bugzilla because a maintainer can get a good view of issues in their projects. I'm very interested in <a href="http://blogs.gnome.org/ovitters/2007/10/06/crash-gnome-org/" rel="nofollow">Olav's work</a> to queue the crashers somewhere else (i.e. crash.gnome.org) and then push them to Bugzilla. That said, in the status quo, most of the duplicates get identified pretty quickly, it's certainly an easier prospect to go triaging than when I first started in 2001. @Luis:

I'd guess that the vast, vast majority of the difference is that their stack trace handler doesn't automatically send stack traces to their bugzilla.
