Richard Stallman said at the LinuxDays in Stuttgart: "Microsoft don't have that problem." This would be a very, very good thing. Right now the annotations are basically useless because there's a ton of crap for every useful annotation. It would seem to me that anything which reports a bug (or behaviour in dead versions (e.g. beta build)) or asks a question should be deleted *and* an email should be sent to the submitter reminding them that this is not a bug tracking system and directing them to http://bugs.php.net/ if they're still having problems.
Perhaps members of the QA team who have little to contribute during the actual fixing of bugs (like me!) could take a look at this after the work on the bug database is mostly complete. Zak
