a sub-team of bugsquad that only assigns bugs to packages [no other
triaging task involved] might work. the job of this squad would be to
triage incoming (new) as well as old bugs without specified packages
only to packages. it's fairly easy and works nice because package
developers get feedback on bugs in a more efficient way. For example, a
couple of bugs for which I only did this got their way up to 6.10
milestone.

this also makes life easier for dupe-finders (which could be another
sub-team) as they will only click on "bugs" link on the left side to
look for dupes on a newly reported bug.

one more team: xorg-crash-team could triage only bugs that report xorg
is crashing for some reason (bad config, no driver, gnome screwing up
something etc).

thanks.
