I'd respectfully vote no :-)

Why introduce another 'piece of technology'
when we have something that's already in use,
and may do the job. If it turns out that after
a month (or 2, or even 1 week for that matter)
that the wiki "simply won't do", then we can
move to the issue tracker.

Tour Hosts already has an 'action plan'(my
name - it may have been called something else)
that they use, and maintain, for the planning
of the conference. I viewed the "to do page"
as simply a 'scratchpad' where people put items
to make sure they don't "get lost in the shuffle".
Once those items manifest themselves as part of the
formal 'action plan', they can be removed from
the wiki page, which is why I don't think it
would become unmanageable.
