Just to be informative (I'm a Scarab committer), Scarab doesn't now require a login, because you can define some modules as "public", so links work perfectly without session info or login being required.

An example in our own tracker:

http://www.solitone.org/scarab/issues/id/SCB1499

It's also able to grant users admin rights only on defined modules; we've also added attribute-workflows and blocking semantics, while trying to keep it as flexible as it always intended to be.

Work to be back into Turbine 2.4 has been somehow halted, though, mostly because Eric has been somehow missing lately (as you already know)

Don't get me wrong; Jira is a great tool, and some of its features might be a great inspiration for us; It's just that... We'd have liked Apache Scarab to get the chance to be migrated to a newer version, though maybe this should have happened months ago. We've been very busy in the last year trying to get the project back to cruise speed, and I think we're almost there.

Getting you guys off of
Scarab would allow Infra to turn it off.


Yeah, I guess this should be taked into account too... :-(

I know is late, but if you needed/wanted some support from Scarab team, even for exporting issues so they can be imported into Jira, just send us a note.
