If I'm going to be tracked, I'd better get a raise  .... Oh wait, If I get any money that may set an expectation that my work will be correct, never mind :P :D

Nope, paperwork doesn't work when multiple people on multiple countries are working together.

Discursive version: this board is for "your"[1] convenience. In theory, when a bug is confirmed, it should be tracked at github, so that a milestone (and some labels) can be assigned and the bug cannot be missed during the work for the release. Though, devs are lazy, so from time to time it happens they fix bugs on-the-fly or think they can remember things[2], so bugs are not tracked and in very few cases it happens some of those misses the release. :P
Well, at least there is something for 1.0.4. ;)

Post a topic, make it sticky in this section, lock it and write down ALL issues in there as well, or better, links to them on GitHub. When a new version is released you wipe it out and replace it with a new TO-DO list.
Make Spuds local mod in this section to supply the fact he is not using a moderator membergroup (for testing purposes, I know).

Elapsed time: 5 minutes (or less, actually, since you have this one in the list xD)
Elapsed time each time: 30 seconds

Pros:
Impossible to miss anything anymore
Ability to check the whole list before releasing in a more organized and simple way

Cons:
30 seconds wasted for each bug

I think it worths it. Lol

TL;DR: a forum is not a bug tracker. Trust me.
