+<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Ireneusz Gierlach at 27/09/10 19:09 did gyre and gimble:
+&gt;<i> I know you guys are talking about forum software only (I'm jumping in
+</I>&gt;<i> the middle of the conversation so i'm not sure), but there is a
+</I>&gt;<i> developer platform called redmine. <A HREF="http://www.redmine.org/">http://www.redmine.org/</A> It's in Ruby
+</I>&gt;<i> on Rails and has like Forum, Wiki, Roadmaps, issue tracking and so on.
+</I>&gt;<i> As far as I know its GPL.
+</I>
+I think a lot of the constructs and principles in redmine (and other
+trac-like systems) are not really geared towards a full distro type
+system. Certainly I doubt the repository viewers etc. will be sufficient
+and the forum component is also likely rather simplistic compared to
+fully-fledge forums. I doubt very much we'd want to use anything other
+than bugzilla for issue tracking (mainly due to the history, but also
+due to the fact that the workflow in redmine is deliberately rather
+simple and minimal and we probably want something more rigid).
+
+With this in mind, if you discount issue tracking, forum and repository
+viewer, then there are not many reasons left to make Redmine a good option.
+
+Don't get me wrong, I use trac (which is very similar to redmine) daily
+and really like it, but I'm just not convinced it would be appropriate
+for this kind of thing.
