The wiki is a great summary and platform for discussion.  I see two
items of interest:
owner (who is working on it) 
reporter (who wrote the ticket)

An implication for a team effort is that projects will be broken down
into sufficiently small tasks such that each task can be owned by an
individual.  Further, all such tasks are subject to a rollup that will
be sufficiently concise that non-technical stakeholders will be able to
make sense of what they see and the team can, at a glance, see how the
project is progressing.  

A fallout of this suggests that at least, there will be either an
internal or external tool to help breakdown a project into sufficiently
small tasks that there can be a single owner, assure that all the
requirements are covered by this task breakdown, all the task are
allocated (owned) by someone, all the tasks are being worked on, and
that all the tasks are being reported on.

With all the activities involved in the overall process, it would be
handy if there was some way to plan and keep track of these setup
activities and a method to help users assure that they address all the
steps in their planning and execution.  

Having the right tools to do a job is great.  Having them organized is .
