Thanks for the note on Launchpads capabilities. Providing the infor-
mation in the "bug reporting guidelines" on launchpad looks like a good
place. Currently there is for Nova "Please include the exact version
of Nova with which you're experiencing this issue.". 

The wiki page about the bugs [1] could be enhanced as well and then 
we could let Launchpad link to this wiki page. Maybe this would reduce
the maintenance of the template. Subsections could be introduced for 
project specific debug data.
