I'm good with redmine, and if Lynxis is going to be the administrator, I think it's reasonable that he should be able to decide in what he's going to be working on.
I had done some looking and thinking about before Lynxis offered to set up redmine, so I'll still present those items.
These were my questions about what the community wanted from a bug tracker: - Is git integration needed or desired? (It might be nice, but I didn't think it was needed) - How about IRC integration? (I'd say no, but i wanted to put it out there) - Any requirements on the language that the tracker is written in? Python, Perl, Php, and Ruby seem to be the choices. - Are there any required login methods? Does it need to support the login types that review.coreboot.org supports? - Is (anonymous) public reporting desired, or do we want to require sign-in and user validation first? (I'd vote for sign in)
These were the results of looking through all of the various defect trackers - mostly from wikipedia's page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_issue-tracking_systems

I did like the looks of Flyspray - It seems pretty light weight - as opposed to bugzilla, which seems overly large for what we need. MantisBT and Redmine were the others that I though looked interesting. Roundup and The Bug Genie didn't particularly appeal to me, but they seemed fit the criteria. Trac and Apache Bloodhound were also initially on my list, but I removed them due to Patrick's comments.

people were nagging me to set up a bug tracker for the project.
Well, to add, lynxis (Alexander Couzens) offers to setup a redmine instance. Since that removes admin duties from me, I'm quite in favor of that.
So, redmine?
