I will be around, so important decisions can be >deferred to me. I do have some time at hand I can spend for maintenance tasks of Org. As Thomas S. Dye has pointed out in [mid:143D63FD-E8F2-4B1C-ABFD-DB11159E53CA@tsdye.com] something that seems to be missing in Org development is kind of a queue for open issues.[1] IMO setting up patchwork as a semi-automated tracking system is a good idea: As far as I could see from various projects that use patchwork it actually /is/ kind of an issue tracker, tracking this special kind of issues, patches. If it is possible the patchwork installation should not publish the submitters' mail addresses -- currently the submitter's name is displayed with a mailto: link that contains the email address. Tracking patches with patchwork would leave open the question of other kinds of issues: Bug reports w/o patches, feature requests, and general user questions. I'll try to track these issues and after I've found a suitable work flow maybe put a file with open issues on Worg. Both systems would form a queue of things to be done: The organizing task consists of (a) reviewing non-patch-issues and (b) reviewing open patch-issues in patchwork and (c) make decisions (e.g. apply patch, comment, etc.). This is something I volunteer to do.
