Work around a line-length limit in poplib Work around a limitation in python2.7 implementation of poplib (for the pop3 protocol for fetching emails): It seems poplib applies a line-length limit not just to the lines involving the pop3 protocol but to any email content, too. This sometimes leads to tracebacks whenever an email exceeding this limit is encountered. We "fix" this by monkey-patching poplib with a larger line-limit. Thanks to Heiko Stegmann for discovering this.

Roundup Issue Tracker
=====================

.. pypi-release:: roundup
   :prefix: Download
   :class: note

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.

The current stable version of Roundup is 1.5.x which has quite a comprehensive
:doc:`feature set <docs/features>`. For more information see the :doc:`design overview <docs/design>`,
and all the other :doc:`documentation <docs>`. Roundup has been deployed for:

    * bug tracking and TODO list management (the classic installation)
    * customer help desk support (with a wizard for the phone answerers, linking to networking, 
      system and development issue trackers)
    * issue management for IETF working groups
    * sales lead tracking
    * conference paper submission and double-blind referee management
    * weblogging (well, almost :) 

...and so on. It's been designed with :doc:`flexibility <docs/customizing>` in mind - it's not just 
another bug tracker. Roundup ships with a *demo tracker* to play with - after you've unpacked the source, 
just run "python demo.py" and load up the URL it prints out!

Roundup was originally released as version 0.1.1 in late August, 2001. The first `change note`_ I wrote says:

    Needed a bug tracking system. Looked around. Tried to install many Perl-based systems, to no avail.
    Got tired of waiting for Roundup to be released. Had just finished major product project, so needed
    something different for a while. Roundup here I come...
