Yes. We want people to report bugs, and we don't want bugs to be
reported more than once. The BTS helps to achieve both, and with
a low administrative overhead.

If it's okay for the "guys in charge" who are doing the programming
work (Andy, Pavel, David, Dominik et al?!), I suggest we just start
using the SourceForge bug tracker to a larger extent and then we'll
see what comes out of it.
