ISSUE TRACKING Bugs and other issues can be reported and tracked at: http://bugs.sakaiproject.org COMMUNITY Most Sakai collaboration happens in one (or both) of two arenas: the collab server, and the Confluence wiki already linked to here a number of times (bugs.sakaiproject.org/confluence). The collab server is a fully functional Sakai deployment, with sites set up for community sub-groups, but in day-to-day activity it is used most often as a kind of listserv. You're encouraged to set up an account on the collab server and join any groups you like at: http://collab.sakaiproject.org The most active site there is the "DG: Development" site, otherwise known as "sakai-dev".
