+1 for keeping this ML and (eventually) improving TJC. Personally, TJC currently suffers of one big drawback, which is not even technical: it is perceived more as a generic issue-reporting / feature-requesting tool than anything else. Developer related questions have always been reported on this ML first, and later on TJC mainly when it resulted in a bug of some sort.
