Thanks for the feedback.  It seems the majority so far would prefer to 
just use issues.  Yes, having a table on the wiki could easily get out 
of date, let's forget that.

I like your idea of using labels and assignment.  I don't think you can 
be notified if a label changes, unless someone posts a comment.  Right 
now, we have a 'future' label, should we use that or make a new one like 
'libvirt todo' (or similar)?

If not, we could always dump them in 'future' with something special in 
the issue name, like '[libvirt]'.  Then search can find them easily too.

lmr,

Is there any special access needed so folks can assign issues to 
themselves?

Any Other opinions?
