That's not necessarily a bad thing. But thinking that having such an issue tracker is actually going to help *get rid of* the pointless part of things is a nice dream, but just a dream. The only advantage I can see of it is to increase the visibility of them. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/
