Andrew,

The way you've written this makes it sound like bugs.maemo.org still has the problems of "self-signed certificates, default voting limits, and strange component selection". It doesn't.

And then when you say "positive progress" at the end, it makes it sound like you are comparing the bug tracker at harmattan-bugs.nokia.com to the one at maemo.org. I think what you meant to say is that there is progress in tracking bugs for Harmattan.
