[Dovecot] Bug tracker

[Timo Sirainen]

Probably the ugliest/user-unfriendliest bug tracker UI that I've ever seen :)

I would have the option of adding a comment that doesn't go to the mailing list (= adding some internal comment that nobody else cares about). Notifications about new bugs won't go to the mailing list (most likely it was created due to a recent mailing list post).

I would add bugs there only when I'm not planning on fixing them within a few days. I wouldn't add each and every feature request there, only the things that I'm actually interested in developing. So the idea would be to actually get the bug tracker emptied at some point, not to be a graveyard of unimportant feature requests that about 1-2 people in the world would want.
