half of the suggestions are technically illiterate. There was more than enough time for the technically literate to comment on and modify these suggestions. In most of these cases detailed design has been done and is on the bug tracker. Occasionally the records are on one of the wiki's. While there may be good financial reasons for moving services off Osprey, IMHO we need to keep that information *in some form*, even if it's only a static archive (in which case note the distinction between public and private bugs/comments). When I looked into it many years ago, migrating the bug tracker to a third party (while keeping data) didn't look feasible, but I believe the situation has improved since then - *if* we're just moving to another Mantis instance. I wasn't specifically thinking about moving away from Mantis, even though nobody seems to use it any more, although perhaps that is implied by shutting down osprey. I have found over the years that bugtrackers often just act as a way to record ideas and bugs, never to be seen again. I wonder whether the number of open bugs in our bugtracker is increasing, staying the same, or decreasing over time? What is the current process for deciding which issue should be tackled next? Can anyone describe it in a clear way? Somehow I suspect not. Ian.
