True, but back then, subscription was handled manually, and the list was
open to all winds. With a real, automated system things would certainly
be different. We might consider having a subscriber-only list for us
developers, and something different for user support (totally opened, or
moderated... not sure).

I believe that more usual mailing-list and tracker configurations will
let the number of reports and - hopefully - the number of contributors
and new developers to the project, increase. I'm almost certain that
some people would give up with our current setup because they wouldn't
want to ask for a manual subscription "just in case".

I'm fine with virtually anything that improves the current situation. I
don't have enough experience with different bug trackers, mailing-lists
etc. to really emit an enlightened opinion. Let's try things and see how
it goes! :)
