R-alpha: bugs generally

Ben Bolker writes:

  In the future (say after release 0.5 goes out), would it be feasible
to start a publically-accessible list of bug reports, known bugs, and
patches?  (Something like the current TASKS list, but maybe a little
bit more dynamic?)

There has recently been some discussion regarding widening the official
developer base and the amount of people who can apply patches to the
source tree.  I think that as soon as that is worked out, we can also
start thinking about a bug management system.  What I have in mind is
something akin to the debian-bugs system.

But clearly, without a `patch management system' we cannot do that.

Best,
