Dear LinuxBIOS community, we've set up a new issue tracker based on Edgewall Software's fine software "trac". Find it at http://tracker.linuxbios.org/
The tracker has the following features (amongst many others) * a timeline shows the latest work being done on the repository and on the issues/bugs. * a Roadmap that shows all current milestones, associated features and bugs, as well as the progress for each milestone. * A Source browser similar to viewvc, but much nicer looking. * management of bugs, features, addons for the different components of LinuxBIOS and its versions. * painting gantt charts on open features ;-) * Code tags, showing all occurences of "FIXME", "XXX" or "TODO" in the source tree. * triggers by svn commit messages: http://www.linuxbios.org/Development_Guidelines#Bug-Tracker All open tickets from the old tracker will be migrated soon as a further public test of the issue tracker ;-) and to bring some stale news back to mind You can add new tickets and also reply to tickets without logging in. But for some features, such as changing ticket descriptions later on, you need to log in using your svn account. From now on we should put all patches that occur on the mailing list or off list into the issue tracker. When a new patch occurs for the same issue, it should be attached to an existing ticket. Also, Acked-By: and Signed-off-by: messages should be added to the tracker instead of using emails now (emails will be sent to the list when you do this, anyways), so we have a logically structured overview on changes that happen to LinuxBIOS. Have fun using the tool! Questions, ideas and flames are welcome, as always. Best regards, Stefan -- coresystems GmbH • Brahmsstr. 16 • D-79104 Freiburg i. Br.
