The days before Chistmas are a wonderfully quiet time to catch up on old work which otherwise just drowns in the daily noise. I got a lot of Apport cleanups and improvements done.
One particular highlight of 1.11 is that it is now easy and consistent to collect information for a bug report on one place/at one time and save it into a file
$ apport-bug --save /tmp/argh.apport udev
… and report that later on with
$ apport-bug /tmp/argh.apport
This can happen on an entirely different machine.

It would also be interesting to be able to just upload that file without apport and have launchpad process it. This way you would also be able to upload it from a windows pc.

This also means that you can use apport to report totally networking failures, in addition to be being able to report problems as they occur (for example on the plane). Chouette!
