Looks like the pressure from the Cooee open source split has already resulted in some action. After many, many months of user grousing, Tod Liebeck of NextApp has just announced the launch of a bug tracker for Echo2. It’s Mantis (not my favorite bug tracker — personally I prefer JIRA), which is better than nothing.
A bug tracker is long overdo. Let’s hope that other open source best practices start to appear, so that community involvement is boosted and these bugs get fixed.
Personally I’d like to congratulate Tod on this move. It’s something that has been an exceptionally long time coming for the Echo community, and I believe it will prove to be extremely beneficial.
