I Agree with Richard: even if all the information is here, in the mailing list, and therefore anybody can research in it just using google.... it would be much clear to use some tool such as a bug track system both to track bugs and to track and user enhancement requests....
some known examples: http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/list http://code.djangoproject.com/query http://bugs.python.org/ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ http://bugzilla.kernel.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pan https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/ In my personal case it would be much easier to convince customers about web2py "seriety" and continuity if I could show them some standard software development proccess... They keep asking me: "can I see the list of bugs to see how they have been managed..." etc.... Nevertheless..... I agree with Massimo "We should not confuse freedom of expression with transparency and with *democracy*" ( http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/ee3d45486f44c5d1/55d29f17376818eb?lnk=gst&q=democracy&pli=1 ) ... and I am thankful to the Massimo's team work... It makes me save a lot of time...
