Hi All,

I was wondering what the current state of issue tracking is for the
SCons
project. There was some talk a little while back about moving away from
Tigris to a different issue tracker, has that happened?
No. Sorry. Dirk made script to export tigris.org issues, which I
saved here:
https://bitbucket.org/techtonik/dataliberation/src/tip/issues/?at=default

but Google deprecated their Issue API, probably due a lot of spam:
https://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/IssueTrackerAPIPython
Bitbucket supports import/export, but was considered awful by me:
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/Export+or+import+issue+data

and then I stuck with reversing Roundup tracker model.

Moving to Roundup as bug tracker got discussed recently on the dev ML:

  http://two.pairlist.net/pipermail/scons-dev/2014-May/001369.html

I have patched the export scripts from the dataliberation repo above,
and am able to export most of the current Tigris tracker's info to a
Roundup instance.

I also have two final pull requests pending at OpenHatch:

  https://github.com/openhatch/oh-bugimporters/pull/57
  https://github.com/openhatch/oh-mainline/pull/293

which will make our database available (read-only) via their Roundup
tracker.

Regards,

Dirk

Whilst the project may not like Github or Bitbucket's in built issue trackers, personally rolling your own comes across as a really good way to minimise the number of people who contribute to the SCons project. Each unfamiliar technology, new account to set up, etc forms a hurdle, and eventually people just stop jumping. I've only every heard of Roundup on this list, and Tigris is dying but at least it exists and can and is being used today. It's the dev team's prerogative to move from tracker to tracker, but please let's not sidetrack a thread on "how can I make the project better today" with conjecture and what-ifs.

Cheers,
Andrew
