It's now possible to give the ability to manage individual product configurations to individuals that are not administrators without giving away the keys to the rest of the installation. In the past three years, I can count on one hand the number of times I had to fix things with Bugzilla, Apache, and MySQL (Linux based). In any case, I don't really care if it's Bugzilla, Sourceforge, Trac, Jira, or something else. My point is that right now, the current issue tracking system could do a lot more to help foster contributions. Rather than spending a lot of resources fixing RT, why not use something that does a much better job meeting the needs out of the box?
