Some planning is needed on the backend to capture the data. It might be
nice for FC3 to allow anyone to submit their data automatically either
by running an add on app for FC2 or integrating into firstboot for later
releases

Is you can capture dmi data (bios, board, versions etc), ram size, I/O
devices, pci devices etc, and search on all of those (eg by PCI vendor id)
That would give a lot more correlation data for bugs for example.

a direct relationship with hanging"]
