Roundup 0.2.6 - an issue tracking system *** Roundup is now released under the same terms as the Python License. *** This is predominantly a bugfix release - a couple of bugs in the init were found which caused problems getting started. Feature: . Added tests for instance initialisation. No more releasing the software with bugs in roundup.init! . Now bundling unittest with the package so that python 2.0 users can use the tests. . Much better error handling and messages generated by the mail gateway. Fixed: . Implemented correct mail splitting. Added unit tests. Also snips signatures now too. . Bug #447671 - typo in roundup/init.py . Changed date.Date to use regular string formatting instead of strftime - win32 seems to have problems with %T and no hour... or something... . Bug #448484 - now catching correct exception from makedirs. . Instances are now opened by a special function that generates a unique module name for the instances on import time. Roundup is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry "Track" design competition. Note: Ping is not responsible for this project. The contact for this project is richard@sourceforge.net. Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties such as "description", "priority", and so on) and provides the ability to (a) submit new issues, (b) find and edit existing issues, and (c) discuss issues with other participants. The system will facilitate communication among the participants by managing discussions and notifying interested parties when issues are edited. One of the major design goals for Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup is therefore usable "out of the box" with any python 2.0+ installation. It doesn't even need to be "installed" to be operational, though a disutils-based install script is provided. It comes with two issue tracker templates and three database back-ends. Back-ends for relational databases are being developed. Source is available at the website: http://sourceforge.net/projects/roundup/
