Mandating the use of a STATUS file can certainly be a bit ham-handed. But *using* a status file is far from bureaucratic. Would you rather spend an hour trolling through the archive trying to figure out how people felt about an issue? Or simply hit the status file? What if a lot of time has passed? In Apache Commons, there is a status file that I can go and look to see what direction people were thinking back from day one. No need to find and crawl the archives. It's all neatly summarized. Multiple that time savings across the entire community, and the status file can be a huge winner.
