Project Member Reported by jrn@google.com, Dec 8, 2013
Affected Version: 2.7-rc4

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Visit http://review.cyanogenmod.org/
2. Try to report a bug in Cyanogenmod

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected result:
Some natural trail of links leads me to http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/.

Actual result:
A shiny "Report Bug" link in the corner takes me to https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/list.

Possible fixes:
 a) Remove the "Report Bug" link, rely on people to visit the Gerrit project page.
 b) "Report Bug" link going to a landing page explaining that it is for Gerrit project bugs, not Android bugs.
 c) Maybe changing the link text to something like "Report Gerrit Code Review Bug" would work?

The link is configurable [1] since Gerrit version 2.5.

gerrit.reportBugUrl
URL to direct users to when they need to report a bug about the Gerrit service. By default this links to the upstream Gerrit Code Review’s own bug tracker but could be directed to the system administrator’s ticket queue.

Perhaps we can also make the text configurable.
