Is bugzilla worth keeping?

One thing I notice about most other open source projects is that they
have many more flamewars than we do. So, I thought I'd start one:

It strikes me, looking at the wine-bugs list, that there is a huge
disparity between the number of people maintaining it and the number
of people filing bugs in it. It seems to be quite rare for
communication on bugfixes to take place there, wine-devel is the more
usual forum.

So are we misleading users by having a bugzilla into thinking that if
they file a bug there, it'll be fixed when it probably won't?

If so, does it matter?

If we were to simply drop bugzilla, how would it impact the project?

Thoughts, anybody?
