Subject: Re: Bug Tracker

Trac seems to be popular.  I'll have to review it more, but didn't see
where it did LDAP authentication.  We are trying to consolidate all
authentication via LDAP. As I mentioned earlier (too many
technologies).  We are using subversion, so that is a nice feature.
Another drawback is that it doesn't have PostgreSQL support (yet). 
This is another consolidation we are planning.

thanks Dema and Stephan,
andy
