Agreed, bugzilla isn't going to help. Frankly, I haven't see the software
that *would* help. I don't think it's been written yet. What we need is
software that:
1) let us track various TODOs
2) kept draft specifications for those TODOs
3) kept partial code when contributed
4) linked to e-mail discussions
5) tracked who'd volunteered to implement and/or test features
6) tracked which features were dependant on which other features being
implemented.
7) was searchable
That, IMHO, would make it worth a little extra effort to enter stuff. And you
could draft help.
