Bugzilla in Java?

[David Miller]

Here we go again....   maybe?

I encourage everyone to take a look at bug 188570
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188570

and offer opinions :)

We have an offer to port Bugzilla to Java again.  My immediate reaction was
WONTFIX and pointed him at Scarab as work already done, but he points out
that Scarab turned out to be a replacement and not a compatible port, and
he wants a compatible port.

He's offering to do the work of course, but what kind of support should he
get?  I'm a bit iffy on it personally.  But if someone keeps it up to date
I don't see a problem with giving an admin a choice of interfaces.  The
problem comes with that keeping it up-to-date part.
