Hi René,
I don't know about Trac's tracking system but I find bugzilla difficult
as it requires report generation. How to get a listing of recent bugs is
not obvious.
The html markup in the current wiki is not strict XHTML. We do want the
new site to generate properly formed XHTML pages, or am I mistaken. Also
Python code gets mangled, '<' replaced with '<' for <code> sections.
This is probably a data entry problem though. But whatever wiki engine
is chosen it has to handle this properly. Trac does. Do any of the html
tag wikis handle it right? What alternate wiki do you suggest?

hi,
the main way we do bugs with pygame is through the mailing list. The
internet is a bug tracker.
I wrote a blog post about the reasons why the mailing list is good,
and what 'the internet is a bug tracker' means:

I personally think trac is a bit rubbish, and have been happy with
James Paige hosting bugzilla for us.
The current pygame wiki just uses simple html. So should be fairly
straight forward to convert... or we could just leave it in html.
Since most programmers know html anyway... way more than trac markup.
