Sourceforge has its native bug ticket system https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/Tickets/ and since you are already hosting the project there, that might be the easiest way to go. Personally I like Bugzilla https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugzilla. Set it up on one of your Princeton machines; it's pretty lightweight https://www.bugzilla.org/. Or run it in Amazon's cloud https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B007I8OOJ0. But anything will have startup costs and you might not find that worth it. 73, Paul K6PO ___ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel

[wsjt-devel] S+P operation
Trying new features with FT4 and noticed that when S+P is active during non-CQ (receive only) operation, it will pounce on stations using directed calls such as CQ DX WB5JJJ EM35. In a contest situation, which FT4 is designed for, this would be fine since there will not be any directed CQ's typically. So, should this option not be shown on the main UI unless a contest is selected since it can cause frustration to some operators that don't want to be bothered by local stations pouncing on their directed CQ? Judging from some comments, it appears that FT4 may be the new norm for those seeking their first WAS, DXCC and not just contests.
