What do you think of the Google bug tracker? Neil and I created a project
for Haddock at http://code.google.com/p/haddock/
For reference, it took well under a minute for me to create a new
Google Code project, and is unlikely to need maintenance ever.
Google rules!
I'm thinking of the overheads of using a web app to manage a bug database as
opposed to a text file + darcs + email. Google code is certainly good, but it
isn't going to beat the low-tech tools in terms of simplicity and speed. What's
more, we'll have to populate it with all the existing known bugs, or keep bugs
in two places. And can you extract the metadata from google code when you want
to move to Trac or something else?
I'm mainly worried that I'll have yet another place to go looking for bugs.
David - if you want to set up a Google bug tracker for haddock.ghc then by all
means go ahead, but my vote would be to keep it simple, at least until we really
need the extra functionality.
Cheers,
Simon
