I have installed Mantis 0.19.2 as my issue/bug-tracker, and sofar I like it. Simple, fast and with more features than I will ever use.

Of course I will keep you updated on how (or “if”) I like it.

No. I should. Perhaps I should buy Joel’s latest book and read it.

Most of the time when developping I can remember what I was working on, or what bugs bugged me. But sometimes solving one bug takes a lot of time, or there’s a weekend, or something else that takes the attention from developping, I just forget about the smaller bugs. Tracking them in a database is wise.

Does anybody have suggestions? Preferably ones that are free? I’ve looked at Mantis in the past, but never got so far to actually using it. Open Source is not mandatory, but a pre. Other than that, it should run on Windows XP + Apache2.

Functionality sofar working:

  • Saving directory is created if it does not exist
  • AfterPaste working properly
  • Basic functionality for splitting URL into seperate parts (filename, startnumber, etc)
  • Basic functionality for finding out which part is the numeric part of the filename

I didn’t work on it last weekend, because I had other things to do. After the “determine where the numeric part is” will come the implementation of the download-function into a seperate thread. If that works, the number of threads will be a configurable item.
