Well, that's OSS software for you, which is only 10-100x more responsive than most commercial software to bug reports. I've filed several bugs with core python and other close to core packages, some years ago, and am still waiting for the response. I find trac-hacks pretty responsive as a community. I mean, no, its not lightning agile or whatever. But overall people are friendly and semi-resopnsible, and while I rarely get an answer on bugs and plugin adoption as soon as I would wish, I usually eventually get it. (Just, um, don't look at all of my outstanding bugs....I feel horrible not working on these). I don't really know what to say here. You can always fork. Its the easiest thing up front. But it is moving away from coherency. Or you can come up with a patch management strategy. I need to do this myself some day. > Don't you think that TracHacks could be in a better shape if we find a > better approach to align interests of individual authors with > interests of community? Well, yeah, trac-hacks and the rest of the world. I mean, I think everyone would welcome change for the better. There have been a few discussions about it, on this list and trac-users, but the fact of the matter is, it is really hard to organize a community effort when everyone in the community has a different opinion and very few are willing to contribute time. I know I can't right now. Again, the sad story of OSS. > -- > WBR, > --anatoly t. > > > > On Fri, Sep 25, 2009 at 11:54 AM, Michael Renzmann <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hi. > > > >> What is the status of NoAnonymous plugin?
