Yeah, collecting oopses is a good idea, so +1.

However, we probably want to think about what exactly we're going to
do with that information. For example, if I want to address an issue,
I probably want to know how I can reproduce the oops - maybe something
like allowing the reporter to add free text note to the oops.

And yes, as tytso already said, we are very often going to need more
info about a system causing the oops (dmesg, lspci, dmidecode, etc,
etc). I'm not sure how we're going to collect that without sacrificing
some privacy. Or maybe, we could be able to ask people to open a bug on
bugzilla.kernel.org where further debugging can take place...

Which reminds me: maybe connecting bug reports on bugzilla.kernel.org
with your stats could also be a way to connect bug reports with
reporters...

Thanks.
