The community, and I am impressed you do not want to understand the "why". It
is an extremely bad picture for an open source flag like Python to go to a
vendor for such an easy requirement as a bug database. I am seriously concerned
that the PSF infrastructure committee EVER considered non open-source
applications for this. In fact, I thought that was an implicit requirement in
the selection.

There are many open source applications around. They might not be the best, but
at least they are yours, and not of some third party software vendors with its
own interests.
