So this was discussed during the Status Meeting and now it's here for
a broader discussion. :)

It was suggested that a feature/goal tracking tool (FATE) be adopted
by openSUSE and made public (bug .223290). There are a few reasons for
this:

* This is one of the cases of the wiki being misused for such a thing,
when it's not ideal. Several projects currently use the wiki for goal
tracking. While it's absolutely awesome thath this stuff is public so
that many of us can take a look through, it may not be ideal. Some
examples: Zypp, YaST, KIWI
<http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/KIWI/Todo>, UX, Build Service
etc.

* Things are more open to the community; openSUSE does use FATE
currently, but it's Novell's one only open to employees.

Current cons are that it would really take quite some time/effort to put up.

So, the question is: would people in other projects find it useful
(instead of having to use the wiki) to have this, and do you think it
is a good idea?
