This brings an interesting general issue about ticket and task managers.
People usually get involved with several tracker tools, have their
personal TODO lists on the side, have their share of incoming email that
has to be handled, etc. Chances are that we need to keep track with
more than one tracker tool as if by definition. Hence the ticket
aggregation issue may be easily a beyond-Trac problem, single or
multiple instances aside.
For example, personally I use mostly org-mode with remember, and
sometimes Astrid when on the go. Not everything is in the Trac/Savannah
for me, actually far from that. It would not be as productive as
org-mode where tasks are just a `C-c a t' away from my fingers. So I'm
`aggregating' at least in between these tools, as it were.
What do people do to manage their GTD stuff? I like reading about
various GTD philosophies, so please share if you wish. (at the risk of
hijacking the Trac thread...)
P.S. Thanks for the musings about Redmine. We were thinking of Trac
mostly because it is a good cool tool that also has some central
support over here. I haven't checked Redmine personally.
Best regards
