I'd say the clashes occurred because nobody mentioned at all what they
are working on. Since people started using IN_PROGRESS to mean "I'm
working on it", this shouldn't happen again.

Sorry, I failed to properly read what you quoted.

I think once you know that these other trackers exist, it's clear. If
