Right, I'm one of those users (have been in the past and am somewhat still) as
well as a former member of the PMC and so acting like I'm suggesting screwing
them over ("them" which would include me) by simply suggesting that solving
this mess in completeness is intractable so you just have to go with a
heuristic (which I'd argue spending oodles of time on isn't worth it) is also a
bit insulting.
I suggested that JIRA can handle this. We're using it in oh, about 2-3 Apache
projects I'm on and it's working great. If you think it's a mess for all the
stuff you put in the email, great, that's your prerogative. I'm just saying in
my experience it hasn't been that bad.
