Hi everyone
We currently have 2 issue trackers (trac and forgejo),
Previous discussion:
"[RFC] Issue tracker" and "trac ticket statistics"
https://lists.ffmpeg.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/HS46O6K62MHRHJDJC45XLRMR64RE5IB7/#LMXCTJDF5SIUSX43X7YZ4347U5YHWW33
I think there are 2 questions, the first is,
which issue tracker do we want to use going forward?
And the 2nd question is, about migrating tickets.
First lets establish which tracker we want to use going forward.
It seems there where 2 options suggested.
"T", Trac, with a potential future switch to redmine (similar to trac)
"F", Forgejo
The difference is easy to spell out,
Trac has many more features (more powerfull search, votes on tickets, a range
of anti spam features, ...)
trac seems not very actively maintained, redmine seems actively maintained
Forgejo avoids maintaining a seperate issue tracker but its fairly basic, also
if we ever switch to
a different forge having issues in forgejo is a factor to consider.
About performance/speed, If someone has data on similar hw and similar
# tickets and # users, this would be interresting, I was unable to
find such comparission.
after this Vote, i intend to start one about "migrating tickets."
All GA members can vote, by replying to this mail on ffmpeg-devel,
duration is 7 days
I will try to vote last, so i can break a tie if we have one.
If you dont vote, then dont complain about the outcome,
If you want something else than what was suggeted in the RFC, you can of course
suggest that too during the vote
thx

Its where all developers are, rather than specifically only people who
deal with issues. I hardly read trac since it has no notifications at
all about new issues.
The lack of a way to ping devs on trac is a HUGE issue.
