I am starting to hash out what the Call for Trackers is going to say on the Infrastructure mailing list. Laura Creighton suggested we have a list of features that we would like to see and what we all hate about SF so as to provide some guidelines in terms of how to set up the test trackers that people try to sell us on.

So, if you could, please reply to this message with ONE thing you have found in a tracker other than SF that you have liked (especially compared to SF) and ONE thing you dislike/hate about SF's tracker. I will use the replies as a quick-and-dirty features list of stuff that we would like to see demonstrated in the test trackers.

A feature I can't recall seeing anywhere, but one I'd like:

the ability to define a filter, and have the tracker email me when a new bug is submitted that matches the filter (being able to create an RSS feed based on a filter would be just as good)

Something that I dislike about SF:

the fact that I can't use email to participate in a bug discussion, but have to use SF's somewhat horrible web interface.

OK, I guess I slipped in another feature request with that second one ;)

Cheers, Nick.
