I would significantly reduce my enjoyment of Debian if we were to move
away from mailing lists and the BTS. Surely the BTS could be a bit
more friendly in its advanced features, but new contibutors can simply
ignore those, and a motivated person mght build a nice web interface
for those.
I would like to keep the BTS with its opportunity to pull up a
complicated bug report in my mail client WITH FULL THREADING.
