I'm a passive user of bugzilla, not involved with any project using it
but every time I have to report a bug on a project using it I think
twice, why do I have to register and run away if I have to remember the
password I used 2 years ago when reporting my last bug.
bugs.php.net might not be as shiny as others but it makes reporting
easy, fill in a captcha and you are done, no registration or such, you
might even use a fake mail address (not that it necessarily helps to be
unreachable for getting things resolved)
And then there is a religious thing: Bugzilla is written in a legacy
language ;-)
And yes. it has some rough edges, but it get's it's job done, integrates
with out user system, our "what's the current version"-notification
system, ...
