[maemo-community] email address as bugtracker link for non-small projects?

[From: Gary Birkett]

Andre,

An open public tracker is a nice thing to have (for obvious reasons), but
some projects do not.
If any testers are unsure of the responsiveness, perhaps they could send a
test mail to the address and thumb up if responded to?
It seems like a reasonable mechanism to connect the developer with the
testers?

The test mail itself could also include a link to a page on the wiki
indicating the benefits of a public tracker..
