For bugs in a non-wiki doc, just a discussion between the bug reporter
and the author is all that's needed and the "discussion" is often
short with perhaps just a one-word reply from the author saying "done"
,"fixed" or the like (plus adding "thanks"). For a bug tracking
system to work well, someone needs to handle cases where a bug report
gets no response and possibly referee disputes that can arise. Since
we haven't people to do this, and since I think it's a low priority,
I think that right now we shouldn't spend time on a bug tracking system.
