Even posting this to fedora-list makes no sense to me.
Why would the readers of fedora-list want to be forced to read the
description of every open bug in bugzilla? It is very easy to do a
bugzilla query to get all these bugs, and the data you'd get would be
more up to date than emails like these.

Already there is so much traffic on fedora-list that its hard to find
the subjects you're interested in, and many developers and contributors
unsubscribe because of this. Dumping the bugzilla database onto the list
just makes this worse.

There are times when bringing up a bug report on a mailing list is
sensible, maybe to get a wider audience to test a bugfix or something
like that. But just sending a mail describing a bugzilla entry with no
additional information, for seemingly no specific reason seems like a
waste of peoples time.
