Making bugzilla indexable

Hi,

First, sorry if this is the wrong list for this post as the topic is 
broader than just Fedora but I could not find a more relevant list in 
http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo.

Now, for the actual message.  The redhat bugzilla is an invaluable 
source of information but it lives in the invisible web as per 
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/robots.txt.  Keeping web spiders out of 
http://bugzilla.redhat.com seems legitimate.  But, as bugzilla sends 
e-mails each time some content is added, why not sending all of these 
mails to a mailing list and making the archives of this mailing list 
public and indexable.  Or maybe it is already possible to search 
bugzilla reports using Google?

IMHO, this would simplify Fedora troubleshooting a lot.

Thanks for your time.
