One thing I notice about most other open source projects is that they have many more flamewars than we do. So, I thought I'd start one:
It strikes me, looking at the wine-bugs list, that there is a huge disparity between the number of people maintaining it and the number of people filing bugs in it. It seems to be quite rare for communication on bugfixes to take place there, wine-devel is the more usual forum.
So are we misleading users by having a bugzilla into thinking that if they file a bug there, it'll be fixed when it probably won't?
If so, does it matter?
If we were to simply drop bugzilla, how would it impact the project?
I think it is worth keeping.
Even if there is much cruft, at one time it will get more acceptance.
I took a look in the last hours and there are again some low hanging fruit to clean out.
It will get better over time. Hopefully ;)
