Question

I love the bug tracking, Bugsweb, now used by TWiki and would love to integrate it into our wiki. However I don't see where I can:

• Download it.
• Find instructions on how to install it.

I have looked around the Bugsweb and not found any information in this regard. Is it available somewhere?

KennethLavrsen has done a similar bug base application and can be downloaded from http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Application/WebHome.

Kenneth created a cool application suite. How about packging this as an Add-on and publishing it in the Plugins web at TWiki.org?

Kenneth's application does look interesting. However, Bugsweb looks friendlier for non-programmers, which we definately need. Therefore, my question still stands: Is Bugsweb released somewhere? Or, to use your words Peter, "How about packging [Bugsweb] as an Add-on and publishing it in the Plugins web at TWiki.org?"

Bugs web isn't released, no, though SvenDowideit (who did most of the dev) keeps promising to do so.

It only works with DakarRelease, so that would be a starting point. Other than that, I could give you a zip of the current contents (data and pub) and you could fillet out the existing topics (rm Item[0-9]*.txt* should do it). You could then release the result back as a Contrib in Plugins web, if you felt like it.

We are running Cairo, as you can see in the environment table. I'll have to setup a test Dakar and test our current plugins a bit sooner than planned. The DakarRelease page says it will be out in early 2006. I'll have to decide if I want it that much to move to a beta environment.

I appreciate the offer. Email the zip but change the name to .z or something else to get through the email filter.

You can also "raw view" the individual topics and copy it into your own web. You only need to copy the supporting topics (template topics, form topic, reports)
