Need is clear:
-
Needed a tracking system for WCA activity
-
Ian talked about a tracking system for WAI
-
System folks talked about a system for tracking system requests
-
etc.
Why not take someting existing?
-
We looked around at many systems (bugzilla, gnats, DTS, etc.)
-
Only few (DTS, for
example) supported state transitions
-
None supported hyperlinking capabilities
