 In Scarab's case it is a trial for the Turbine projects and was decided on
 those lists.
 
 I believe the question refered to the
 
  Scarab is an alternative Issue Tracking System and it will shortly
 replace the current BugZilla installation.
 
 Is this a decision made by turbine ?

No. This is a decision made by _ME_ and _ME_ alone, and, to tell you the
truth, either you agree, or, you find yourself another bug tracking system.

I'm fed up with BugZilla, and since I'm the only one maintaining it (meaning
waking up at 3 AM because some randomness happened and the CGIs are not
running anymore), I am the one who's going to decide...

As soon as Scarab is ready, Bugzilla is going to go bye bye (and, not,
noone has a voice on this but me and Justy). Or you can find another nice
place where to host your tracking system, and go from there ... Good luck.

 That sounds both pretty broad and pretty final.

Scarab (was RE: [ANN] in-house mail archive...)

2002-05-03 Thread Waldhoff, Rodney

At http://nagoya.apache.org/ I now see:

 The BugZilla Bug Tracking System
  BugZilla is the Bug Tracking System currently used by most Apache
projects. 
 The Scarab Issue Tracking System
  Scarab is an alternative Issue Tracking System and it will shortly
replace the current BugZilla installation. 

I don't have anything against Scarab (in fact I may even prefer it), and
I've no particular love for BugZilla (in fact I don't especially like it),
but out of curiosity, how is this sort of thing decided?  I've seen no
mention of this switch up to this point.  Is there a list I should be on to
see this sort of thing coming?

By the way, there's a typo on that page:

Those pages are prudly served by the Apache HTTP Server version 2.0 and
Apache Tomcat 4.0.

2002-05-03 Thread Andrew C. Oliver

Dude... is that available to other projects?  Secondly, are there any 
bugs stored in it?  I tried to run a few queries to try it out and got 
no results.  I'd love to try scarab and might convince POI to use it. 
 But I'd rather kinda start sooner rather than later because once we 
have a lot of open RFE's and bugs it could hurt to switch.  

So far I like what I see.  I just want to take it out for a spin...  Can 
you maybe give me a couple hints on some queries to run?  

Thanks,

Andy

I don't think anyone has been using it much yet.

On top of it, the version on nagoya is way old...:-(

It is very easy to install.

Andy,

I am loving Scarab too.  I have a copy installed on my laptop (along
with MySQL and Tomcat).  It's administration is clean, the app is well
documented and user friendly.

Last time I inquired about it, Jason Van Zyl said that it was a testing
area.  By virtue of the fact that it is running on port 8080, it is not
meant to be supported for primetime yet.

However, he did seem accommodating about adding a module for a
jakarta project.  Just ask.

Any plans to upgrade?  Anything I can do to help?  Bugzilla is not my 
favorite and I've been watching scarab from time to time and salivating. 
 (as well as subversion)

Cool.  I'd like to help out anyway I can.  I'd like to see a better 
answer to bugzilla.
It gives me wicked fits sometimes.

One major irk is I'd like to download patches with wget and just snatch 
them automatically...but noo... Bugzilla, I spit in your general 
direction (not that I had a better solution up to now).
