Pardon my curiosity, but why you need someone to act as your proxy 
filing bugs into bugzilla? I mean, I could create a bug, then a 
developer will ask you for some additional info, and I will have to ask 
you and then copy/paste your reply to the bug report, and so on and so 
forth. Why make things more complicated?

Bugzilla accounts are free and instant, just go to 
http://bugzilla.openvz.org/createaccount.cgi and enter your email.
