Debian Developer's Reference - chapter 5
Handling bug reports


5.1 Reporting lots of bugs at once

If you report more then 10 bugs on the same topic at once, it is recommended that you send a message to debian-devel describing your intention before submitting the report. This will allow other developers to verify that the bug is a real problem. In addition, it will prevent the situation where several maintainers start filing the same bug report simultaneously.

Note, that when sending lots of bugs on the same subject, you should send the bug report to maintonly@bugs.debian.org so that the bug report is not forwarded to the bug distribution mailing list.
