Re: bug updating a bug in your issue tracker

on 01/01/2009 01:06 AM Stephen J. Turnbull said the following: In no particular order and with no claim of being any where near exhaustive: * Trac * SourceForge and its forks (GForge, Savannah(?), and others, I'm sure) * Eclipse + add-ons Also one could look at large OSS projects (perl, Apache, Mozilla, the Linux kernel, GNOME, KDE, X) as examples of successful solutions to the problem of open source distributed development. All the open source project hosting sites offer some sort of integrated toolset. There's some good info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_free_software_hosting_facilities, http://www.dmoz.org/Computers/Open_Source/Project_Hosting/ and http://www.ibiblio.org/fosphost/exhost.htm. N.B. I have no experience with any of these, so I have no opinion on which is best or acceptable. But, since I have no experience with any of these, what make me suggest that an integrated solution is worth considering? Good question. We seem to have difficulties tracking the various issues and tasks that fly around. Issues touch multiple tools, and keeping track of those links, interfaces and constraints is done in someone's (i.e. SJT's) brain so there's no collective knowledge. It's hard to practice continuous improvement when everything is so ephemeral. I also note that our development model hasn't fundamentally changed in 20 years. Surely there's stuff out there that we can benefit from. --- Vladimir -- Vladimir G.
