People have consistently complained about RT, so any viable solution seemed worth considering. I know that RT can be customized to do just about anything, but noone has stepped forward to be willing to customize it for darcs. There are a few minor issues with our RT setup that roundup fixes by default. One is having multiple email addresses associated with a single account. Another is the ability to browse bugs without logging in. The search mechanism of RT is powerful, but most people find it confusing. > > [1] In Roundup, every issue (bug report) is a little mailing list. > > There is, of course, also a web interface. > > But that's true of RT as well. Indeed, this has been the main reason that I haven't been satisfied with any replacement for RT before coming across roundup. In many ways, roundup looks like a simpler RT written in python, with a few of RT's warts fixed. I don't know whether this is true, but roundup really does look like it was designed by an annoyed RT user (who obviously would keep the good parts). -- David Roundy http://www.darcs.net _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
