        http://wiki.lyx.org/Devel/Administration#todo

there are some issues related to Trac listed, I've copied them below for your convenience. Could someone let me know which of those that are now fixed, or simply edit the wiki page directly. I think the second issue from the top has been resolved at least.

------------------
* Web/wiki/trac pages have 30s idle times
* Trac do not notify peple via email
* redirection http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5836 ->
  http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/5836
* Trac - how to block bugs?
  [[http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg149761.html|link]]
* Trac homepage into the top line of buttons
-----------------------

The last issue in this list, is that related to the wiki? In other words, does that mean that someone want the link previously to Bugzilla to now point to Trac? If so, what's the destination of the link and what's the text of the link.

Finally, is it ok if I start using our Trac installation to track issues related to the web and the wiki? I could just use a list on a wiki page instead, but it'd be a good way for me to learn to use Trac.

I tested out Trac today and see that

- every character that is not plain ASCII is displayed as some "garbage
character", it seems that Trac needs to be explicitly configured to output
Unicode


Fixed.


- How can normal users create an account?


They can't. We might revisit this issue a bit later.


- We allow now that people can report bugs anonymously. Can this be turned
off? Anonymous reports don't help us in most cases because one often needs
to ask back to the reported to be able to reproduce the problem or contact
the reporter when he should test a patch. Besides this Trac is now open for
spam (that we already have in our Wiki) due to the missing authentication.


I am not as sure as you that hit is without merit. So I'll leave it as it.
Can be revisited later.


- All bugzilla user preferences are lost:
No bug reporter is any longer informed by email when a bug is changed that
he reported or where he is CCed. Can this also be migrated? Currently we
have cut off the users from our bug tracker.
(I currently don't get emails when bugs are changed that I reported or
where I'm on the CC list.)


Trac is not bugzilla.

OTOH mail notifications should now work.

[...]

- The names of bug reporter are lost: When e.g. looking at
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/4228
I now only see the email address of the reporter, but not its full name.
This way, all our bug reporters will only get spam as the bot search
automatically the web for email addresses, but we don't know who is who and
it is impolite to start replies with "Hello Gidienator". Moreover some
reporters also don't appear with their real names but also not with their
email, but with some abbreviation like "dov". OK, I know that "dov" is one
of our developers, but not the bug reporters that get a reply from him.


Not sure if anything can be done about the full name, but at the very least
you can configure it.
How and when it will be used is another matter.

Full mail addresser are only shown to authenticated users.
