Cygwin does not appear to have a bug tracker.

That being the case:

How do we keep all information about a bug together in one referenceable place?

How do we keep a bug around and tracked through to completion?

i.e. How do we do the things that every other project uses a bug tracker for?

Seems like every open source project has a bug tracker.

The various open source foundries seem to provide that as standard.

But no bug tracker for Cygwin.

Consider this a bug report against the Cygwin project.

I'd report it as a bug on the bug tracker, but we appear to have a catch-22 / bootstrapping problem...
