It is based on the winning design +from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry "Track" design competition. + +Note: Ping is not responsible for this project. The contact for this project +is richard@users.sourceforge.net. + +Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties such as +"description", "priority", and so on) and provides the ability to + (a) submit new issues, + (b) find and edit existing issues, and + (c) discuss issues with other participants. +The system will facilitate communication among the participants by managing +discussions and notifying interested parties when issues are edited. One of +the major design goals for Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup +is therefore usable "out of the box" with any python 2.0+ installation. It +doesn't even need to be "installed" to be operational, though a +disutils-based install script is provided. + +It comes with two issue tracker templates and three database back-ends. +Back-ends for relational databases are being developed. + +Source is available at the website: + http://sourceforge.net/projects/roundup/ + -- 2.30.2
