we used it for squeak and I never liked it.
It is ugly as it gets, I don't like its appearance either. I won't argue on that :)
But it is reliable, flexible and full of features.
We talked about migrating to JIRA, but we have ~12000 issues tracked, and moving off is not an option by now.
On aesthetics I like the simplicity of GitHub or the "style" of JIRA (some bloatware can be removed and/or hidden).
true JIRA is already much better. But still compared to trac or github... :D
Well in the end we might survive with JIRA as well ;) since issues should be filed in from the image directly. So the interface is mostly a problem for the integrators ;)
Fog Creek would be happy to provide all of you with a free FogBugz On Demand account. It has a good API, it has file attachments, it has custom workflows, triggers, and plugins, and we're about to release a version that's Gmail-level fast (which I could turn on immediately for a Pharo account, so you don't have to use the existing "slow" version). I know it's a relatively complete tracker compared to e.g. GitHub Issues, but I'd like to believe that our UI is easier to navigate than some of the other options. Plus, I'd be happy to help migrate your issues from Google Code to FogBugz on your behalf, with full history if you'd like. I know I pretty much lurk on this list these days, but I've been programming in Squeak since 1996 and Pharo since it came into existence; giving all of you a free, good bug tracker would make me quite happy. --Benjamin
