Hi Chris,

   I believe we could introduce a issue ticket tracker without cost to you.

   I'd be curious to hear input from other significant OSG developers about 
whether they
use an issue tracker in their work, if they find it effective and useful, and 
if they
believe it would be similarly useful to OSG.

My opinion is that on a large project, bug tracking is only effective if you have a dedicated crew (one or more people) doing the bug triage and assignment. If we don't have that level of involvement from others to make sure duplicates are marked, invalid bugs are closed and priorities are assigned, then the workload on Robert will increase.

Unless we have a few people who want to commit to doing that and stay in that post for a reasonable amount of time, a bug tracking tool will just become a dump of issues which will be impossible to sift through and make sense of.

However, the flipside is that it can be really effective with the right bug wranglers. Once again I point out the Mozilla project as one great example, and there are many more.
