| 1 Roundup Issue Tracker | |
| 2 ===================== | |
| 3 | |
| 4 .. note:: | |

| 6 Latest stable release: `download`_ | |

| 9 Roundup is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. | |
| 10 It is based on the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry "Track" design competition. | |
| 11 | |
| 12 The current stable version of Roundup is 1.4.x which has quite a comprehensive `feature set`_. For more information | |
| 13 see the `design overview`_, and all the other `documentation`_. Roundup has been deployed for: | |
| 14 | |
| 15 * bug tracking and TODO list management (the classic installation) | |
| 16 * customer help desk support (with a wizard for the phone answerers, linking to networking, system and development issue trackers) | |
| 17 * issue management for IETF working groups | |
| 18 * sales lead tracking | |
| 19 * conference paper submission and double-blind referee management | |
| 20 * weblogging (well, almost :) | |
| 21 | |
| 22 ...and so on. It's been designed with `flexibility`_ in mind - it's not just another bug tracker. | |
| 23 Roundup ships with a *demo tracker* to play with - after you've unpacked the source, just run | |
| 24 "python demo.py" and load up the URL it prints out! | |
| 25 | |
| 26 Roundup was originally released as version 0.1.1 in late August, 2001. The first `change note`_ I wrote says: | |
| 27 | |
| 28 Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many Perl-based systems, to no avail. | |
| 29 Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be released. Had just finished major product project, so needed | |
| 30 something different for a while. Roundup here I come... | |
| 31 | |
| 32 So I've been working on this thing for over seven years. Do you like Roundup? | |
| 33 Want to say thanks? You can just send me a note (I always appreciate them) or better yet, `send me a gift`_ :) | |
