One other situation to consider is organisations which don't want to have an e-mail address listed at all, since they are using contact forms on their website. Using the BTS exclusively would expose non-public e-mail addresses (the ones used to submit the request). Personally I don't have anything against complete openness or exposing e-mail addresses as long as this is quite clear in advance for any potential partners, but I don't think this will help a lot with processing the requests. In my opinion a lot more automation is needed, not only for the adding part, but also for periodic pings, etc. Kind regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
