Is it free? (I couldn't get that information from my first glance on the site)
If it is unfree, it doesn't look suitable as bugtracker for a censorship free
network to me.
Proprietary solutions allow censorship *by design*, because some specific
entity controls what the system does - no matter how benevolent that entity
might be at the moment.
I already had that feeling about uservoice, but there I though "oh well, it's
not really integral for freenet". But the bugtracker is integral, and relying
on a proprietary solution for an integral part of freenet is dangerous.
Best wishes,
Arne
