Hi,

I set up an issue tracker[1]. Come and make acounts there (I will need
to approve them - a somewhat sane default configuration). I shall now
proceed with moving contents of TODOS.org to the tracker.

I'd like to move the documentation from .org file to the wikia Redmine
(our issue tracker) provides. What do you think about it?

So, you see I chose Redmine. Why? I looked at the options. Bugzilla
seemed good but it seems to have been removed from Debian. Same with
GNATS. Yet another tracker I considered was Fossil, but Wikipedia
mentioned it providing repository functionality and I didn't want that
(since I am using cgit+gitolite already). Eventually, I went with
Redmine (Parabola is using it). It is not very fast, I hope this won't
pose a problem.

So, I am now pretty sure I want the documentation trnsferred to Wiki. Also, I resolved the issue with Redmine page taking ~20 seconds to work (something was consuming all my VPS' RAM). What I am considering now is whether project's git repo should also be moved to Redmine.

Redmine supposedly supports some kind of email notifications. I have not yet set it up, though. I will do it at some point

Email notifications and account activation via email should work now. Something in Redmine seems to be queuing emails for random amounts of time, though, even before thay actually reach the MTA. I guess this is not a tragedy...

I realized it is also possible to integrate issue tracker functions with email, for example to allow users to manage issues or post comments by sending mail to Redmine. I am not going to play with that now, though. One day, perhaps
