Of course I don’t understand anything, but for the last fifteen 
years or so that I am around, bugzillas and email lists were 
enough to get Linux where it is now, which is not that bad IMHO.  
Then from time to time somebody has a wonderful idea, that the 
only sensible mean of communication is that people have to 
register to yet another site, and write to TEXTAREA there. He 
puts such site together with some CMS/wiki, couple of hundred 
already known items are put there. That’s easy.

Then nobody bothers to communicate with developers (because they 
have better things to do than browse around the web to find 
whether somebody had not a yet another great idea what they 
should do) and file all those bugs into bugzillas, and maintain 
the website to be up-to-date (it’s a lot of work to emulate 
bugzilla with tools which were provided for that — I know it, 
because that’s my job to do it) and there is yet another 
bitrotten website which nobody cares about.

Sorry, I am afraid that people who cannot be bothered to 
subscribe to the list, or to subscribe to bugzilla, has anything 
interesting to contribute to the discussion.
