Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):
> Trac is hard
I can hear you in a joking way, but Trac isn’t any harder than any other
issue tracker. Saying so kinda only perpetuates the myth? Please don’t
blame the tools for the process problem of not a single person searching
for an existing issue, the result of which is everyone gets a new tool
that nobody will use correctly again.
> I forgot this ticket
You and everyone else, it looks like.
The most frustrating part seeing leaders shut this down ''hard'' here, and
then seeing the same exact ideas and work being iterated on elsewhere by
other people, outside of this issue.
Frankly, I don’t blame people one bit for doing it that way. Even if they
had found this ticket, they’d have read the back & forth over an
incredibly small improvement, and avoided all of what’s here just to get
the job done and totally avoid the up-front human obstruction.
This is why it’s so important to be open to all new ideas and changes, and
to stop closing tickets and shutting people down. Most of the work is
going to get done one way or the other, with or without the people that
stand in the way. The only thing that comes from intentionally making
things harder for each other, is failure.
See also: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/9898 for another good
example outside of WordPress where similar folly is taking place.
