This echoes my thoughts: it's clear people who are well versed in,
and committed to, bugzilla, can make it work for their planning.

So, because I listed projects I was sure you'd be familiar with
you're suggesting it requires expert quality people to use it?  Way
to further preconceived notions.  Have you done any reading or
research, or just ruled it out for some reason?

The reason I made that remark is because the mozilla guys are those
"from which bugzilla was borne". I have no trouble figuring they are fluent enough with bugzilla to use it for whatever they want.

I'm not against use of tools (obviously, I've been _the_ person
installing and building tools for us so far), should we find one
 that's ideal.  But I also don't feel like prioritization,
scheduling, and sticking to those are going to be solved by more
tools.  They're social issues.

They're social issues that can be helped by tools.

Yes, they can.  If the people want to be helped.  Our consistency
with even the simplest, fixing regression bugs, suggests we've got
bigger issues than just tooling.

I think this is a false choice.

Anyway, I'm dropping the whole initiative.
