Just had a request (from Iban Hatchondo) to install Bugzilla or something similar for projects. What are your opinions? To me it sounds useful to have a bugtracker of some sorts. Is Bugzilla the one we want to go with?
Erik.

I have no experience with it, so can't tell really. I'd say we just go ahead and try it.

I've set it up once. I think it's kind of ugly. It works, though, and I don't know of any good free alternatives. (cvstrac is quite nice, but it's a bit simplistic compared to Bugzilla. It's a lot simpler to set up, though, so you might want to test it and see if it's good enough.)
There's also scarab, which seems nicer but also not progressing very quickly.

How about: by default projects get no bug-tracking. If they ask for bug-tracking software X, they get it as long as the administrative workload remains reasonable. Kire gets to define reasonable as he sees fit.

I can see how preferences about source repository software can cause emotional responses but I don't believe the same happens for bug tracking. If I get to choose, I'd say we stick with one of them. I'll try to evaluate them all this weekend.
