Well, I have a question for all of you.
Do any of you have any preferences to using bug trackers for projects? I have been looking around, but haven't picked one so far. I've taken a look at Mantis, and it's okay, but I want to try other ones first. If you have any suggestions, please post them here.
Thanks,
Sphenn

professionally, I've only used Microsoft RAID, which is an internal bug tracking system they have.. I've looked at a few others, haven't really seen any I like though..

Yeah, it's the same problem with me. It's for a project of SF, but I really hate the trackers they provide. I've tried BugZilla, but it won't install on the servers, and plus, it's in Perl

I use Mantis for some projects and have been pretty pleased with it so far.
I also use RequestTracker (
http://bestpractical.com/rt/) for some other ones, although it's more of a trouble ticket app than a pure bug tracker. And it's written in Perl (although if you're just _using_ an application, who cares what it's written in, right?)
Another product I really want to start trying is Trac (
http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/). "Trac is a minimalistic web-based software project management and bug/issue tracking system. It provides an interface to revision control systems (Subversion), an integrated Wiki and convenient report facilities." And it's written in Python.

I was searching for PHP bug trackers a while back

For what it is worth, I ended up going with Scarab, which is java based but has suited my needs rather well.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'm going to read through everything, and try a few out.
Thanks again for your input
