Yes, I believe it is really true.  I've used a lot of trackers (as I'm
sure you have), and none discourage me the way this one does.

I'm sure there are user demographics for whom it is the right solution
-- Debian Developers are probably one such!  But Emacs developers are
not.

I've seen some that do both well (Launchpad is one, there may be
others).
