Twisted's issue tracker is based on Trac, which has had increasingly bad performance over the years. Also, its code and deployment setup are so bad that everyone who has the ability to improve it has tried as hard as possible to avoid touching it at all.
So I started writing a new issue tracker compatible with Trac's database, based on Twisted and more modern web technology. But it's incomplete and I'm not a JavaScript expert, so I need your help. If you've ever tried to contribute to Twisted and had to wait on Trac in order to read, comment on, or submit a ticket, contribute to Frack! It's already much faster than Trac for what it does, and there's plenty of room for you to help. If you want to help out with Twisted, but like writing HTML or Javascript too, contribute to Frack! It's written using modern, modular JavaScript with client side templates. It uses Twisted on the backend so using stuff like websockets for updates would be pretty easy to add. Interested? Here are some things we'd like to do soon: - Add a nice front page - Add a search page - Display more info on a ticket for reviewers the code is at: http://launchpad.net/frack The current prototype is running at http://twistedmatrix.com/users/frack.twistd/ui/ticket.html?id=<ticket_id>. You can contact me directly or post on the list with any issues or questions you have. _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list [email protected] http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
