I get a queasy feeling about that, because bugzilla is not a full-scale
workflow or project management system. It's specialized to one piece of
the development activity. We can kludge it into being a to-do-list
management system by saying that all to-do items are bugs, but maybe
there is a better way. Is there anyone on this list who has seen a
smoothly-working team of distributed developers working on an open
source project? If so, what tool(s) did they use to keep track of their
work? I figure now is a good time to ask.

I am concerned about this also. A slightly more sophisticated "workflow
management" system might allow less experienced people (like me) to
easily identify work that really needs to be done and not chase their
tails quite so much.
