@Joachim: Can you say something about the technical details please?

Good.

IMO a wiki page is enough and more flexible. In general working with a wiki is 
quicker. I prefer a bug tracker for bug reports and feature requests, though, 
because it is more formalized and helps deal with input from the "masses". ;)

Good. So let us try to progress with the port. There is still some work to do 
there, also with the installation routine. I'll try to take care of that.
