"Linking a bug report can be done with two click, and launchpad
has a good documentation. "

Personnaly, I didn't even know that. Maybe it's easy when you know how to
do, but the interface is not intuitive for doing so.

Users will not read pages of documentation to report a bug. They already
must do an extra action over their regular work to report a bug, reading a
documentation should not be an obligation if the interface was good.

As for my question with the nominate for release, I really think I have done
something wrong with this, and I still don't know what exactly it is, and
how to remove it.

Lauchpad have a really bad user interace for the normal user (maybe
fonctionnal for debuggers, but NOT intuitive for users), but this point is
off the topic.
