AFAIU the showstopper was that people wanted to be able to _control_ the
bugtracker using email only, i.e. not forcing you to open a web browser
to do stuff like adding comments or attachments to a bug, or closing,
etc.
I'm not sure what you have in mind about "integration" between the
mailing lists and the bugtracker, because nothing else I can think of
makes much sense. I'm always happy to be illuminated :-)
