Subject: Re: Bug Tracker

If you're using Subversion for source-code repository, I would stronly
recommend using TRAC (http://www.edgewall.com/trac/) (even if you
don't). The ticket system they have is simple but just works(tm), the
interface is beautiful and the whole thing is written in our
friend-language Python.
