Re: Bug tracker?

Sure, but there is a huge difference between gathering requirements to pick an existing product and writing specifications for a new product. The latter is much more work and not very easy to do with just a mailing list around. I'm also noticing some strong opinions with respect to this topic which means that it won't be simply a matter of collecting some preferences wrt bug tracking, as I'm sure there will be opposing views which will complicate things and require discussion to work out properly. I'm sorry, but I'm simply not up for that job and the level of work it requires. I agree that there seems to be an opportunity for a better tool here, and if you want to go for it that would be great, but I'm afraid I'm not going to help. If that means that we'll make a poor choice then so be it: I think it is better to have a poor bug tracker with good bug wrangling rather than a great bug tracker that will take a lot of time to materialize. My goal with sending the original email was to get a decent bug tracker going within a month or so that would help xemacs development along. If it's going to take longer than that to have something working then I'll probably drop the whole thing anyway.
