Hi, I agree, it should be encouraged. I don't think its a good idea to use external trackers for people to submit to. Bypassing the mailinglist and the community development aspect. It should be kept on suckless. Maybe it's an idea to just place issues in a TODO file in the repository? -- Kind regards, Hiltjo
