Re: Bug tracking

[Richard Stallman]

    Please bear with my ignorance, if I happen to say something stupid;
    but couldn't just Emacs talk to the bug tracking system directly so
    that a user has no need to start a browser?

This does not solve the problem.  The problem is that a web-based
system requires a net connection.  Using Emacs as the client rather
than an ordinary browser might indeed be an improvement in such systems
but it won't help those who have no net connection--such as me.

I have decided that for tracking issues we should use a text file,
not a complex system, and certainly not something web-based.
