I also wouldn't mind making changes as required to make it fit in better with the emacs development model[1] (as debbugs is rather Debian specific now.) The codebase is here in a bzr repository: http://bugs.debian.org/debbugs-source/, the mainline branch is our "distributable" branch, and the "debian" branch is the code that is actually running on bugs.debian.org. If someone who wants to set it up needs a hand configuring it, let me or debian-devel@lists.debian.org know.[2] Also, feel free to ask if you have questions about specific features of Debbugs. Don Armstrong 0: Hopefully I haven't hideously broken this thread; unfortunatly, the lack of mboxes on the web archive makes that "interesting". 1: I don't really know how you all develop emacs, so I would need significant input on what changes were needed. 2: I don't currently have a demo of it set up, though I have had one running in the past. -- Grimble left his mother in the food store and went to the launderette and watched the clothes go round.
