John,

Have you considered moving octplot to sourceforge or maybe savanah? Or
maybe just using their software on your server?

The main problem (and I agree it si a big problem) is that it is web
based, and does not interact very well with email -- i.e. you can get
email notifications, but you must use the web interface to reply
etc...

The very big advantage is an excellent bug tracking system, and if you
use their servers, an excellent distribution and mirror system

[I'm moving this part of the discussion to the maintainers list. --jwe]

I think this is a good time to start discussing what we can do about
bug tracking for Octave.  Up until now, I've been happy to deal with
bugs just by keeping a folder of messages sent to the address@hidden
mailing list.  When a bug is fixed or I don't plan to fix it myself,
I delete the message.  But then we don't really have a useful public
record of bugs that have been reported bug not fixed.

Do people on the list have any suggestions for good bug tracking
software?  I'd like to be able to interact with it via email, but the
archive of bugs should be accessible on the web.

It seems that the Debian bug tracking system might have what we need.
Is it easy to use the Debian bug tracking system outside of the
Debiain project?  How easy/hard is it to setup and maintain?  Is there
something better?

Thanks,

jwe
