yes. that's what i told him too. you *can* use it for bug-tracking but
it would definitely be lacking features. each bug would be its own
discussion, you can specify that certain users can create discussions,
or users can post and the administrator can accept them (moderated
discussions).
i wouldn't use it though. i don't think it would be possible to do
email notification (e.g., notify a team member that he/she is assigned
a particular bug report), and i'm not sure how easy it would be to
move a discussion to become part of another discussion instead
of it's own separate one (for when a bug report is the same as
an old bug report), although i suppose it'd be trivial to just close
the discussion (no more posts allowed) after putting a comment
pointing it to the original bug report.
