I know I said I was leaving...

I started geeking around with the settings of Drupal here and have configured it as my primary RSS reader and adding a few other modules. It's really pretty nifty.

To expand on my initial posting, as the Sr/Lead Developer of the company, I have my hands in every project that comes in the door. For some I participate in the determining the vision and goals of the project, for others I design much of the architecture of the system, still for others I get my hands deep into nearly every line of code used, and finally, I'm starting to look into the business development side of projects. It's a sort of Jack of All Trades role and I quite enjoy it.

Within our current dotProject modifications, I am working to integrate it with the Mantis Bug Tracking System. We have used both systems extensively for quite a while and it's a logical progression. At this time, I have all of the read-only functionality complete. My next step is to create, modify, and delete issues.

This time I'm really leaving.

You've replied to some of my post in dotProject and I finally clicked on the url in your signature bringing me here!

Interestingly, this week I have been adding a bug type to the HelpDesk mod that makes the HelpDesk Mod workable as a bug tracker. Just got testing entering the bugs today and then this minute just read about mantis...wondering is there more it can offer than the modified HelpDesk. It's god that the later is linked into the projects/users, etc of dotProject. I don't know about using something separate like Mantis. What are your thoughts as regards this?

Cheers, Tom.

Just read a post of yours from a few days ago on the dotProject forums which indicated you are working on a dotProject Mantis integration! I guess that answers my questions :-)

As you can tell

I think it's very worthwhile to integrate the two. Mantis is an easy to install and configure issue tracker and dotProject is an easy to install and configure project management tool. It seems like a great fit.

As a side note, about 6 months ago, I was in a meeting with my boss and he mentioned that we needed some project management tools. While still in the meeting, I ssh'd into the Redhat box under my desk and had dotProject downloaded and deployed within 15 minutes.

Of course, I had already done it a time or ten, so maybe I'm not an unbiased user...
