Is this really a problem? Casual users could just use the Bugzilla = interface, and experienced users spitting out bug reports should be able = to install a port. > 2) The solution you propose requires an internet connection. send-pr does too, right?

It could be a port, and users = could just install that port. Implementing a JSON HTTPS client in bourne shell seems, well, painful. = But maybe I could write a Python script to process emails received at = FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org and shepherd them into Bugzilla? Then = only there MX would need Python. Erik=
