Re: [Trac-dev] New Trac based project

As some of you may already be aware, earlier this year WANdisco[1] approached members of the Trac development community with a view to working out how we could most effectively invest development time into the project. We plan to use Trac as a basis for a defect tracker supplied with our uberSVN product[2]. Our goal being to develop a tool which can compete out-of-the-box with other non-opensource defect trackers that have gained popularity in recent years.

By way of follow-up, the proposal has now been submitted to the ASF Incubator. 

The Apache Incubator mailing list is public so feel free to follow there if you're interested in how this goes. The proposal itself is available in the Apache Wiki at http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/BloodhoundProposal

I read through the incubator proposal and realized that this proposal
is actually much wider than Trac itself and really extends to include
other parts of the Trac ecosystem. As the de-facto Genshi maintainer
(recently self appointed :) and a Bitten developer, I have a couple of
questions:

* Is Bitten one of the plugins you're planning to include in Bloodhound?
* Do you envisage Bloodhound also forking Genshi?

As Genshi maintainer I'm more than happy to accept contributions from
other developers and I'm in the process of cutting a new Genshi
release (although I encountered a few procedural hiccups like needing
access to some Edgewall servers to upload releases).

Personally I'm happy to see people taking a serious interest in
maintaining and developing Trac and friends -- they're all still quite
cool projects and they good do with a little TLC.

Hi Simon,

At this point we're still in a period of community building and performing enough discovery to form a detailed plan. As such precise decisions about what will be in the first Bloodhound release are yet to be made. There are a number of plugin authors we'd really like to talk to about inclusion and we will be making that contact in the next few weeks. We'd rather only fork what we have to and one of the goals will be to maintain as much compatibility as we can, so I can't answer the Genshi question just yet.


Personally I'm happy to see people taking a serious interest in
maintaining and developing Trac and friends -- they're all still quite
cool projects and they good do with a little TLC.

That's great. We've been encouraged by the initial feedback and are certainly serious about making this work. I look forward to updating you all on progress once a little more water has flowed under the bridge. 

Best Wishes,

Ian

yup - what he said +1

I am interested in seeing/helping Trac become fully semantic web enabled.
