Public bug reported:
I want to report a bug, so.
1. I search for "ubuntu bug tracker" and find https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
2. I log in to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
3. I look for a "file new bug report" button. I find the "Report a bug" text.
4. Instead of being taken to a page where I can just report a bug and get on
with my work, I get taken to a page the length of a short novel filled with
information I mostly already know and won't read as I've been a developer and a
bug reporter for 15 years and wrote my own guides on reporting bugs
effectively. I wasn't looking for documentation on how to report bugs, I was
trying to report a bug.
Solution:
Add clear, easy to find "report a bug" button on bug tracker's main page which
actually lets someone report a bug. Add another button for documentation on how
to report bugs.
