Hi all,
At work (the Open Source Research Group, University of Erlangen-Nürnberg - -- osr.cs.fau.de) I'm planning to propose an analysis of the effect automated bug reporting tools like abrt (and Ubuntu's apport) have on code quality, as well as developer and user engagement.
I'll propose that all identities be anonymized; not sure if the components and projects need to be anonymized as well. Is there anyone specific I need to get in touch with?
Thanks,

That doesn't really work in practice. Please don't make promises you can't keep. If you just want the public bugs (which covers almost all of the Fedora ones), it might not be necessary to do that anyway.

Well, to clarify, we will not mention names. Given that the bug database is publicly available, it is be possible to de-anonymize the names if one takes the effort to, but it I'll try and make sure that such information will not be in any dataset we release.
That's actually a good point, thanks for pointing it out.
