Hi Jared,
it's not only abut increased transparency but also about better and more
effective communication. Take a look the at the multi-desktop DVD thing:
* How many times die you have to dig through 4 different threads
on 2 mailing lists (ambassadors and board)?
* How many times did I have to repeat myself because info got lost
on it's way to the board members?
* How many board members do know what exactly we discussed in our
two phone calls?
* What are the remaining items on the list of media handout
requirements the multi-desktop DVD needs to take?
* Is there a way to trac the progress during the last 3 months?
When was the ball rolling and when was the process stalled?
All these questions could be answered by looking at a single ticket
easily.
Last but not I think that an issue tracker encourages people to work on
the issues more focused and constructive while a mailing list leads them
to state their personal opinions or even rants and flames. (Yes, I know
I'm guilty as charged here)
Regards,
Christoph
