I'm not on the infrastructure list either. But I wonder why it is
Roundup or else non-python COTS? I gave up on Roundup a while ago
due to too many crashes. I'm now using Trac:
a) Open Source
b) Python
c) Adequate functionality (for me at least)
http://trac.edgewall.org/
I'm not trying to sell Trac, but I would like to know what drove the
developers away from it.
IMO, the biggest concern was that it didn't really scale. I.e. if you
have a thousand open and several thousand closed reports in the
database, you need excellent support for queries, sorting, and alike.
Trac doesn't quite have the same power that the other tools do.
For example, to save a query/report, you actually have to write it in
SQL. For a complex report (with multiple groups), you cannot change
the order of items returned on the page (for a simple search, clicking
on the headings changes the order).
To see what I mean, please try to find out how many open reports
for the module report system are currently entered in the tracker
at
http://trac.edgewall.org/report
How many of these are for 0.9.x?
There is also searching, which doesn't give a tabular view of all
tickets, but instead gives a Web search result page (similar
to what a search engine produces). This makes it difficult to scan
systematically for, say, all titles.

Martin
