By the way, how do you vote there? I personally find maemo bug reporting / package interfaces quite not user-friendly. Google's interface (e.g. http://code.google.com/p/nitdroid-v2/issues/list) is much simple and cleaner for reporting bugs.
There are two separate systems. One is to handle the reporting of issues, the other is quality control for releasing software.

The bug reporting system is called bugzilla (-zilla due to its origins from Mozilla) and is used in a lot of projects which doesn't mean it is actually good . It has more fields than are bug reporters. They can sometimes be helpful to me. The instructions for writing a description I think are quite good to help me best understand how to reproduce the problem and fix it.

There are specific instructions on what the QA process means. People go through and test the software against the checklist, giving it a thumbs up/down. They can also leave comments and use the bug tracker to file bugs.
