Hi Phil:

I think this would be a great idea. Admittedly, it's been a while since I
looked at the Crystal Space bug tracking system, but from past experience,
one thing that became obvious to me was that it doesn't seem to be
extremely well-used. I'm wondering if we should make the visibility of the
system a bit better before implementing the GSoC idea structure in this
manner?

Are there any thoughts on switching away from trac? It's not a bad system,
but I'm wondering if it might be good to get a clean start and get rid of
some of the old cruft still in the system, just so that new ideas and
feature requests aren't lost in the ether...
