I gave redmine a try and it's good, let's me work the way I think and all....integrates with Bazaar.....etc etc.
All the good stuff. The downside though was that it just lacks a decent templating system, lacks some basic API's, etc. At the end of the day... to get to where I want to be I find I need to change /something/..... In the case of Redmine....it meant implementing a SOAP API in order to do some integration with some tools that already have SOAP connectors but don't have REST connectors... And the Ruby kids are so down on SOAP that a lot of the cool generators that are supposed to make Ruby on Rails so fantastic don't really work well - and the Ruby answer is a smug "well, you should use REST"...... given a choice between coding a new integration library in Java or coding an API in Ruby, I would prefer to work in Ruby. Wheras Indeferno, http://www.indefero.net/ is PHP.....which in theory makes it easier to program for[of course, it uses it's own fun little framework]... It means switching to Mercurial or Git....but then those are more widely used anyway, so it's not a hardship. Figured I'd ask if anyone else has played with it before looking further into that route.
