The issue tracker was set up in response to requests on the WG mailer:

now that we have assigned the blame (and my memory is not that sandy was
the one who pushed it), can we answer my question?  where is the win in
repeating emails already in the archive?

Sandy did not "push" it, Sany merely responded to a request from the wg to enable access to the tools team's issue tracker service.

There are wg who have found the issue tracking to be useful. I've no experience myself, so have no opinion for or against.

Issue tracking is a way to ensure that comments raised on the list are addressed in new versions or remain open.

The post to the wg mailing list of each new issue registered is an automatic part of the issue tracking service (I believe). Issues do not need to be raised on the mailing list to be entered into the tracker, so the notification to the list is not necessarily redundant.
