Hi Andrew, Let's be fair. It would be an almost impossible task to make any sense of the archives on this topic without dedicating tens of hours to the task, and having access to a better way of reading the archives than is offered at archives.postgresql.org. Raphaël, there have indeed been vast debates about this. My version of the "executive summary" would be that some people want a tracker, some people think email is good enough, and the people who do want a tracker have different opinions about which tracker would be best for the project. There's a wiki page about the (daunting) set of features which would be required in a tracker to make everybody happy[1]. We are currently experimenting with using a wiki page to organise our queue of patches[2], and there has been some effort to set up a test bugzilla installation[3] but as yet there has been no viable consensus as to adopting a particular tracker.
