Selecting the right product for the job.
This seems to depend on the steps below. I don't think enough wil have
changed to seriously undermine the earlier preference for Roundup.
Finding a reliable host for the bug tracking services.
I would assume that this would be the same host that currently hosts the
XEmacs website and/or CVS, but I don't know how any of this is organized
and consequently whether that is possible.
Starting with requirements, at least some of us have a strong desire
for a bug tracking system that can be operated via email as well as
via web interface.
Ok people, if there are other requirements throw them out on the list
and I'll collect it into something coherent.
External interfaces would be important too, so that we can seed the
database from the existing bug information, which currently basically
exists in bug reports to xemacs-beta.
Personally I'm not sure it's worth it to do this. Might be better to
just start over with a clean slate.
If I recall right then Stephen was favoring roundup[1].
Ok. I have personal experience with Trac. We use this in-house and it is
fine for that. Not sure I'm happy to use it for an open-source project.
With Gentoo we're using Bugzilla, but that may be overkill for XEmacs?
Would you personally be interested in getting XEmacs a bug tracker?
I guess I'm volunteering to put some time into this, yes.
Kind regards,
Hans
