[QUOTE="fforde, post: 338457, member: 52082"] You might be surprised. Both the Moving Pictures bug tracker and the MPTV-Series bug tracker are open to the public and they work [I]very[/I] well. Other open source products like Firefox and Thunderbird have open bug trackers. The Linux Kernel has an open tracker as well as Ubuntu and Debian. Keeping an open bug tracker is a system that has been proven several times over to work and it work well. You're right it requires additional effort to moderate the tracker, but that is not a task that has to be fulfilled primarily by developers. Like I suggested before, maybe a couple of members of the current Test Team would be willing to become "community managers" to take this burden off of the developers shoulders. It's just an suggestion and I realize odds are things will not change this drastically. But don't shoot the idea down as if it would never work, because it can and does work for many many other open source projects. [/QUOTE]
