Me too.

Private bugs only make sense at all if they are private right from the
beginning. Usually the initial email already contains all the details
and the followups are mostly just status updates, etc.

Subscribing ubuntu-security to security bugs is also vital for fast
processing. Polling Malone for new issues does not work for this IMHO.
