that wasn't what i meant.  look at the work Guillaume has been doing
keeping the 2.5 status list (http://kernelnewbies.org/status/latest.html).
nobody told him he could do it, he wasn't elected to the post.  he felt it
was needed and just got on with it.  i suggest someone who's interested
in having a bug tracking system exist just get on with it.  bug tracking
systems don't have to be a mountain of php code connected to an oracle
database.  a simple list can be enough.
