What tracking software does Rubyforge use?

[Pat Maddox]

Does anyone know what software Ruby uses for the bug/requests/patches
trackers? It's pretty slick (way better than Trac imo) and I was just
wondering software it is. Is it internal to RF or is it available for
people to download and use?

It's called GForge.

It's called GForge.

Thanks. I'm having trouble figuring out if it's free or not. Seems
like the app itself is free, but you can purchase licenses?

Basically what I'd like to do is be able to set up a couple different
projects and have a couple trackers, just like a rubyforge project
would. Though we probably won't have more than 15 users or 5 projects
or so. Would GForge be good for this? Is there any other open source
software I should take a look at?

Yup, there's a GPL'd version and a commercial version. And I think
GForgeGroup will sell support contracts for the GPL'd version, too.

GForge is a bit of a hassle to set up; lots of moving parts. But once
it's up and running it's quite handy...

UBUNTU && debian have GFORGE in their repositories -> sudo apt-get install

For something that small, GForge might be overkill. I've played around a
little with Collaboa, which is Rails-based, but I don't know how active
a project it is. Most of the rest of the software project tools have
either PHP or Python under the hood, so if you have to dig, there could
be a language barrier.

Can you explain why you think its better then trac? I know just from
the UI and user experience level, Trac seems a whole lot nicer then
gforge does. I've only use trac for actual project tracking, though,
and only know gforge through a few bug reports and searching.
