There needs to be community buy in on this idea else it is just a waste
of resources. The hackers need say, "Hey... you know, all those other
projects may be on to something. Perhaps we should learn from them and
do better by our users." This is more than just an issue/bug tracker
discussion. It is a ideology shift.

Until that happens asking anyone to put resources into this idea is just
not worth it.

Sincerely,

JD
