I personally like using Trac more along with Subversion to integrate issue tracking with development, but as it stands right now I don't think we can afford to host the project on a separate dedicated development environment that supports Trac. I haven't looked at assembla.com yet -- but if Google decides to support the Boost software license in Google Code Project Hosting, I'd switch to that anytime. Please expect more tracker activity from me from now on. :) -- Dean Michael C. Berris Software Engineer, Friendster, Inc. |
