Why _bound to reproduce_?  Let's put it another way: we are
_motivated to create_ an Emacs-based issue tracker.  And once
we implement it, even other projects might benefit from that.

As for a web interface, I think it is not an absolute requirement,
and even often undesirable, since a better method for filing bugs
is `report-emacs-bug' which also adds all the necessary information
and doesn't require from Emacs users additional tools.

Though, a some kind of an add-on HTTP<->CVS gateway could be
implemented to sync data between Savannah bug database and text
files in CVS repository, if that becomes absolutely necessary.
