YAJP - Yet Another Jira Plug
Been messing around installing Jira on the cocoondev.org machine, since (a) we'll need such a thing, (b) Bugzilla seems quite outdated now, and (c) Scarab basically gave me the creeps being overly generic and apparently also quite slow on high-end hardware, so a no-go'er for the modestly scaled cocoondev.org server.

Installing went quite easily, it also creates the correct database tables upon initialisation, and apart from some problems when running it on top of an outdated Tomcat version, hitting the 64K barrier when compiling JSPs, I'm pretty happy with it.

For sure somebody is going to flame me for not choosing an Apache-endorsed issue tracking system, but the Atlassian guys are cluefull enough to hand out free licenses to genuine open source efforts, and I don't feel like becoming a Scarab or Bugzilla guru anyhow.

Now if I could find a decent web mailing list archiver that doesn't require too much hackage to install, I would be very happy. Eyebrowse is one of the prime candidates, of course, but apparently it requires some manual massaging as well (it runs on top of mboxes, and I'm running ezmlm-idx/qmail on cocoondev.org).
