Sven, thanks so much for the feedback.

Was the Features bullet in the manual insufficient/incomplete, or was it
hard to find when you first skim through the manual and the
introduction ?

Thanks a lot.

I agree. I'd like to experiment with those. What happens to the
integration comments already in your bugtracker if you switch ? Perhaps
scmbug should provide a tool that changes them ? I haven't experimented
enough with any conversion tools to be able to make any assumptions of
how such a tool could work yet.

I've looked into these. First, we'd have to implement Scmbug support for
them, since Scmbug uses Scmbug for it's own integration. I was hoping
we'd implement GIT or bzr support first.

The main issue, besides making it a priority, is what happens with the
glue configuration files if they are stored in the repository (well,
they are not, yet) After pulling changes, we don't want to pull a
glue.conf that connects the system to somebody elses integration daemon.

But we haven't looked into the details really. A great prerequisite was
reporting branch names, which we do now. Integration with a
decentralized system could be worked-on now.
