One thing to note is that the referenced wiki page is over a year old. And that many more things have been said on email lists than are actually in that page. But as one note - I don't believe you can drive redmine completely from email, which is certainly a requirement that has been discussed, but is not entirely listed on that page. > Jay, Alvaro, Dimitri (and whoever else wants to speak up) could you > please describe your ideal tool for the task? > > Given that every other existing tool likely have pissed off someone > already, I guess our best bet is writing one from scratch. FWIW, I think the closest thing we've found so far would be debbugs - which IIRC doesn't have any kind of reasonable database backend, which would be a strange choice for a project like ours :) And makes many things harder... -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
