Re: Why Emacs needs a modern bug tracker

[Richard Stallman]

    Here follows the description of the Debian bug tracker (called
    debbugs). Also there are some Emacs packages for dealing with bug
    reports.

    "Debian has a bug tracking system which files details of bugs reported
    by users and developers. Each bug is given a number, and is kept on
    file until it is marked as having been dealt with. The system is
    mainly controlled by e-mail, but the bug reports can be viewed using
    the WWW.

It sounds like a plausible candidate.  Whether it is really ok in practice
depends on the details of what using it is like.
