The difficulty with this is that someone has to actually offer up to
maintain it.  Bug trackers do not maintain themselves.

Personally, I do like debbugs and it would likely be the least offensive
approch to those who ike the current mailing list.  I don't know offhand
how much effort it would be to set up, perhaps I'll ask around.

Further, the distributions which most of our users use do have their own
bug trackers (Debian, Ubuntu, RedHat) which include tracking bugs in
PostgreSQL.

Thanks!
