Bug tracking system

Bug tracking system

[Ralf Baechle]

While I'm tinkering with the system - linux-mips.org still has no
bug tracking system to track bugs and so issues get forgotten also the
only system we have to track feature requests and other to-do items
currently is the to do page in the wiki.  But the wiki isn't the best
medium for this purpose.  So should we install something like bugzilla -
which I personally never liked - or other tracking system?  Suggestions?

If bugzilla is to be used, would it make sense to use the kernel.org
bugzilla which already has a MIPS category, rather than setting up a new
one?

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/buglist.cgi?product=Platform%20Specific%2FHardware&component=MIPS&resolution=---

Indeed why not.  Might even talk to the kernel.org admins to have it show
up as bugzilla.linux-mips.org or something like that.

I personally like the Debian bug tracking system but I'm not sure how
well it integrates with esotheric MTAs such as zmailer and how bad spam
issues would be.
