The thing is that we're speaking of this request-tracker for years already. It takes time to setup it properly and nobody has done that yet. On the other hand it takes 5 minutes to create the entry in the BTS. I would suggest to start with that and see if it really helps. Later, we can still switch to r-t if needed. /me, as someone who'd like to help out with DSA tasks, is also in favor of this. And for Alioth administration, we also have a public tracker and it's really useful even if not really convenient to use (sucky web interface). Of course, security issues are always handled by direct mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I see no reason why it wouldn't be useful for DSA.
