I would be more interested in a terminal-based generic Trac client, even if it had no offline mode, than an email-based Sugar-spcific interface. Why? Because I am involved in many projects, not only Sugar, and I do not want to juggle too many custom interfaces. So if Trac generically had some client-server ABI that I could expect would be available at many other Trac installations, then sure it would make more sense to use that in favor of some externally hacked-together Perl library. But it seems to me that Trac do *not* have such ABI, only a server-side API that could be used to _develop_ some custom client-server interaction creature. Mailman also has no client-server ABI. I quite efficiently handle moderator duties with the Perl-based "listadmin" tool. It is an ugly hack for an ugly web-only interface, and I would not expect to find anything nicer for Trac. I was hoping to find something comparable to PyBugz: http://www.liquidx.net/pybugz/ Apparently no such thing currently exist. > As always, somebody with enough time needs to step up to actually do > the work... Not always: only until someone does the work, in a good enough quality that it is kept alive, if not by the author then by others with interest in same tool. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREDAAYFAkopKCkACgkQn7DbMsAkQLgGPwCgpIPYA2Itvk2gX/CTHRmtkWkX hPwAnRvokRxay7ixbFDInCye87wiV2Vx =i4FN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
