I have included pgsql-hackers again, where this discussion originally started crossposted. Hannu's question is absolutely not rhetoric. I see a concern about using a MySQL based tool for PostgreSQL related project management on a public site in it. The Bugzilla project plans to support PostgreSQL in one of their future releases, but this requires functionality in PostgreSQL, that is not even scheduled for 7.3. So the availability of a supported PostgreSQL port of Bugzilla is unpredictable at this time. My opinion is that a project as closely related to PostgreSQL as pgaccess should try to use PostgreSQL backed management tools. The switch to PHP BugTracker or something else at this time would be easiest, since the Bugzilla installation on pgaccess.org is virgin and does not contain any data yet. This is reason why I suggested that switch when you asked for comments originally. And I have not yet seen any argument against it, nor any reason why to start off with a MySQL based Bugzilla version now. Especially when there are equivalent solutions using PostgreSQL available.
