Hi all,

.. therefore I was proposing "Issuezilla" (www.openoffice.org,
see " Bugs and Issues") which was developed on top of bugzilla. 
Their intention at openoffice is to provide a system catching 
improvement suggestions, too. I think that's a good idea.

The only question is: Do we need that? Maybe yes. I feel we
need a "suggestions system" beside our current manually runung
bug-system.

Regards

 Markus
