The only features of Tuleap currently actively used are the Wiki (see: 
https://tuleap.ring.cx/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/ring/index.php?title=Main_Page) 
the Bugs (see: https://tuleap.ring.cx/plugins/tracker/?tracker=15) and 
Enhancements (see: https://tuleap.ring.cx/plugins/tracker/?tracker=17) trackers.

I agree the system is complex and heterogeneous. I'll try to bring your ideas 
into a discussion with the core Ring developers. It is on our roadmap to 
discuss how to improve the community aspects of Ring.

Thank you for sharing your ideas about Ring!
