Well do take look into this for it would be easier for the community and you mods to take a look at the bugs,
you could just get someone(that aint deadbolt) to go over every new thread and get him to type into Pivotal Tracker and both the community can see that the bug has been reported and You guys can take a look at the list and see if there is a bug you can fix and then change the look of the Bug report to say if it has been fixed or if it is intentional.
I would just say take a look at it for it is a good idea.
This is the DF community's Bug report thread
http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/my_view_page.phpthey can see what has been reported and what has been fixed and will see in next patch,
well you guys are the mods so you are the end choosers but i hope you guys will take a look at Pivot.
Atleast think about it.
Mantis is very similar to TRAC.
If we implement anything, it will be TRAC - and I will make parts of it viewable to the public (like I had previously) so that you can all see if a bug has been reported
