Note this is a work-in-progress. It compiles cleanly, but I am not yet submitting compiled HTML and text. There is one notable problem: nsgmls barfs on the <imagedata> tag in database.sgml during validation. openjade handles it fine. Weird. git-svn-id: svn://10.0.0.236/trunk@108585 18797224-902f-48f8-a5cc-f745e15eee43

<title>Bugzilla Variants and Competitors</title>
|
|
<para>I created this section to answer questions about Bugzilla
|
|
competitors and variants, then found a wonderful site which covers
|
|
an awful lot of what I wanted to discuss. Rather than quote it in
|
|
its entirety, I'll simply refer you here: <ulink

<title>Red Hat Bugzilla</title>

<para>
|
|
Red Hat Bugzilla is probably the most popular Bugzilla variant
|
|
on the planet. One of the major benefits of Red Hat Bugzilla is
|
|
the ability to work with Oracle, MySQL, and PostGreSQL databases
|
|
serving as the back-end, instead of just MySQL. Dave Lawrence
|
|
has worked very hard to keep Red Hat Bugzilla up-to-date, and
|
|
many people prefer the snappier-looking page layout of Red Hat
|
|
Bugzilla to the default Mozilla-standard formatting.

<para>Issuezilla is another fork from Bugzilla, and seems nearly
|
|
as popular as the Red Hat Bugzilla fork. Some Issuezilla team
|
|
members are regular contributors to the Bugzilla mailing
|
|
list/newsgroup. Issuezilla is not the primary focus of
|
|
bug-tracking at tigris.org, however. Their Java-based
|
|
bug-tracker, <xref linkend="variant-scarab" />, is under heavy development
|
|
and looks promising!</para>

<para>Scarab is a promising new bug-tracking system built using

Java Serlet technology. As of this writing, no source code has

|
been released as a package, but you can obtain the code from

CVS.
