Much like my experience with bugzilla.  ;-)

Does Bugtrack allow anonymous browsing (and perhaps adding) of entries?
For a 'feature request' list, that would definately be needed. If so,
then it looks like it might be the right tool for the job. It is very
minimalistic though.

What I would like is something with all the 'Tracker' subsystem
functionality in gforge, but nothing else besides that (no mailing
lists, fora, wiki's, websites, top10's, repositories, etc.)
See e.g. http://sarovar.org/tracker/?group_id=230 for an example
(sorry don't know of an equivalent example for Trac)

I believe Hans wants to set up a local repository (from his viewpoint),
with possibly external read access for us. Any other solution would
hinder his development cycle.
