I dont get it. Why is this suddenly great news, when DRI could have been
using sourceforge's bugtracking system all this time?

I completely agree that using a real bugtracking system is what should be
happening right now.

However, it seems the decision to abandon that methodology was somehow made
around 2001, judging by all the bug reports already sitting on
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=387&atid=100387

Someone with access should really go through those things, and clear out
all the ones that have now been rendered(ahem) obsolete.
