It's just depends on how you see the tracker. It's not just to "bug" tracker anymore, is it? On other projects I've worked with, we had separate areas for bugs, features, and tasks. (yes, it's SourceForge.) I found it easier to keep organized. However, if this is Python's way, I'm not going to stand in it.
Actually, one of the main complaints about the SF tracker is that it splits into several ones. Something starts out as a bug, but then becomes a patch as soon as somebody attaches a patch. So on SF, people had to open a *separate* issue to provide a patch, and leave a message in the original bug report pointing to the patch. They hated it, and insisted that the new tracker should have a single list of issues. Regards, Martin
