Notes

  1. For example, being able to link to commits, or use LDAP.
  2. There is little incentive to switch from a FOSS and familiar bug tracking system to another one that will require changes in habits and workflows without providing compelling new benefits.
  3. There are importers for Trac, Mantis, and, to some extent, XML and CSV. However, there is little incentive to switch from a FOSS and familiar bug tracking system to another one that will require changes in habits and workflows without providing compelling new benefits.
