Python bug tracker now secret?

[John Nagle]

I'm now getting messages like this from the Python bug tracker on
SourceForge:

Artifact: This Artifact Has Been Made Private. Only Group Members Can
View Private ArtifactTypes.

I'm being denied access to bug reports I submitted, such as

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1651995&group_id=5470&atid=105470

This is only happening for Python bugs; bugs in non-Python areas are still
accessable. So it's not a general SourceForge bug.

Is this a dumb policy change or a dumb administrator action?

This message actually comes from SourceForge. It is not at all what Python
people would prefer (a proper forwarding message). Such lack of control
helped motivate the switch to our own tracker ;-).
