That sounds familiar. We (MadWifi, that is) had similar problems about
half a year ago. Due to the preferences of the previous maintainer of
this driver we did nearly everything by e-mail: patch submission, bug
reports, feature requests, stuff like this. It was quite hard and very
time consuming to follow all items and answer questions like "what is
the current state of this bug", "is anyone working on integrating that
patch" or "this patch has not yet been integrated, why?".

Most of these problems have been solved by starting to use Trac [1]. It
combines a wiki, a ticket engine, a webbased SVN repository browser and
some other goodies. Works like a charm, freed up a lot of resources and
help to improve the transparency of the project. We don't want to miss
it anymore.

Basically, I'd suggest to consider using some webbased software to
manage things like bug reports, patches and feature requests. Trac might
not fit the need of this project, but there are other tools around for
similar tasks.
