They look good. Couple of suggestions:

- in the bug-qemu template: either add a 'host OS' or a 'host kernel'
field in the  'versions and environment' section. Having to know the
kernel version the user is rocking to determine the cause of a QEMU bug
is not uncommon. Most of the cases knowing the host OS suffices to
get the kernel version, so any of those works;

- for all templates: if the bug happens in an non-x86 arch we want to know
about it. I'd say that a text in the "Versions and environment" section
with something akin of:

"If the bug happens in an architecture other than x86_64, please inform it
below"

will not annoy x86_64 users while also contemplating that other archs are
also supported.


Thanks,


DHB
