Ehrm, "I can help you set one up" is quite different from "I am going to
serve as the geda bug tracking manager and maintain the server/software".
I can set one up too, but I don't want to maintain it.  

Not to criticize or complain about Lucas' offer (thanks btw), but I've
seen offers like this before many times and historically I haven't had
much success in getting long term commitments. 

Basically my philosophy is if you want to contribute something/anything:
just do it.  Don't bother asking if it is okay and don't spark flame
fests on geda-user -- just do it.  For evidence of this, just look at
all the high successful patches/programs/contributions people have done:
they pretty much did the work on their own and these have been *extremely*
well received and appreciated by the community.

PS. As mentioned the last post, I have taken the steps to setting up the
    bug tracker for gEDA, so further comments/flames can be sent to
    /dev/null.  Thanks.
