Anything that is marked for www.gimp.org belongs to www.gimp.org, imo. 
I will continue to treat it this way.

I asked nicely for our own bugzilla entry several times.  Nice requests
get what you see.

I am taking bugzilla as seriously as mmmaybe has been taken.  Which is 
not at all.

Time for people to ask me nicely to use bugzilla, I guess.

One more time, so everyone is clear.  Any bugs reported for www.gimp.org
are for www.gimp.org.  This has nothing to do with mmmaybe.
