Hi,

I installed a bug tracking system (Bugzilla) for ConTeXt and PPCHTeX on
  http://bugzilla.physik.fu-berlin.de:8080/context/

This location may move in the future (for instance to Hans server), all
data is saved in a separate database (besides "our" bugzilla at
http://bugzilla.physik.fu-berlin.de:8080/bugzilla/) and daily backuped.
The server is presently a Debian Woody Athlon 800 MHz with (only) 128 MB
Ram.

Hans asked me to stress that he wants to spend more time on coding than
on managing bug reports: 
> now, we need to establish a strategy, like, only serious bugs are reported, 
> otherwise we end up in spending our lives doing admin work; also, with

> type -)

Since port 80 is blocked at the FU firewall, the 8080 is presently
needed (this may change in the future, but 8080 will continue to work).

With bugzilla it is even possible to produce XML output thus I'm sure
that Hans comes up with a bugreports-to-PDF publishing-on-demand
solution one day ;-)
  http://bugzilla.physik.fu-berlin.de:8080/context/xml.cgi

Send me suggestion what should be changed
(such as available products, components, keywords (presently none), ...)

With warm regards,

Tobias

PS: If needed be I can also set up a FAQ system like FAQ-O-Matic.
