slipandfall asks: "I just started work at a 100% Windows shop (no chance
of changing this) and would love to implement Bugzilla for issue
tracking but statements like this - 'Making Bugzilla work on Windows is
still a painful processes.' in the OS-Specific installation notes don't
make it seem reasonable. Since there is no chance of using Linux/UNIX
here, can I get people's experiences using Bugzilla on Windows or
experience with a tool (open source or not) on Windows with similar
notification, discussion and issue tracking features?"
Leaving aside the stupidity of asking on Slashdot when he could have
asked in the newsgroup, we need to remove that silly piece of text from
the tip docs, as it's no longer true.
However, it's also a useful opportunity to get people's feedback on
Bugzilla and other tracking systems. I'll go through the comments and
post a summary soon.
