Last time I asked about BTS here, people seemed to say "use anything but
bugzilla". So I don't think that's going to be such a big problem..

However I don't see why Dovecot BTS's tracking would have to be any
worse than other BTSes. It would have a familiar web interface that
would work just the same way as the others. But the main thing is that
it would also allow people in mailing list to "use" the BTS, which they
wouldn't otherwise do if it were a separate Bugzilla or similar.
