From IRC discussion with infinity, talking about how to get bug-buddy and reportbug working again:
infinity: So, even a form I can POST to, with some magic cookie that I can use to do anonymous (well, not logged in to launchpad) bug filing without opening you to a spamfest would be fine.
infinity: There's no harm in the magic cookie being public knowlege (which it obviously would be if it was in the reportbug and bug-buddy sources), it's just there to prevent crawlers/bots from finding a form, going "oo, let's see what this does", and filling your database with crap. |
I discussed reportbug and bug-buddy support with infinity. Here were some ideas:

Clearly, reportbug and bug-buddy support is a critical part of making Malone more useful for capturing Ubuntu bug reports. |
