There was some discussion on this topic pointing to benefits, particularly
in making it easier for community members to submit problems, broken links,
inaccuracies, format suggestions, etc. in  the tools we use to communicate
with our community; the websites, wiki, blog, maillists, and irc. Currently
I monitor and respond to e-mail sent to info at osafoundation.org or to
webmaster where some of these are reported, but channeling this through
bugzilla would be better and provide a single communications channel for
reporting problems with what we do so we can fix broken code or
remove/update an outdated webpage.

Also if the decision has been made to use bugzilla to track tasks, then it
would be useful to have a component to collect those tasks that bridge dev
docs, user docs, web design, implementation as we have in the past during
our release efforts.

+1 for Documentation components (and I do think we should have both dev and
user components) for the documentation content.
But I think we also need a Website/wiki component to cover the
infrastructure for the delivery of the content as well.
