As soon as we have a reasonable list, I can setup a Doodle poll. But then again, I could also ''not'' do that. <tt>;-)</tt> --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]

Notice: Hosting a repository within the nbic.nl domain is required. -- MvD

=== Probable Candidates ===
* [http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/ Atlassian Jira] (or a hosted development suite [http://www.atlassian.com/studio/ Atlassian Jira Studio])
** is being used by numerous open source projects, like the [https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa Apache Software Foundation], [http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF Zend Framework], [http://jira.springframework.org Spring Framework], [http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate Hibernate], [http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILS Grails], [http://jira.jboss.org/ JBoss], [http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM Maven], [http://jira.opensymphony.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa OpenSymphony] and many others. In our field the University of San Diego [http://bix.ucsd.edu/ Department of Computer Science and Engineering] (lots of omics) also uses [https://bix-bugs.ucsd.edu/secure/Dashboard.jspa Jira]. -- Jeroen Wesbeek
** has a large public [https://plugins.atlassian.com/search/by/jira plugin repository] for connecting to and integrating with other systems (version control, hudson build server, workflow extensions, worklog and timetracking, etc etc) -- Jeroen Wesbeek
** Free licensing for [http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/licensing.jsp#nonprofit non profit] and [http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/licensing-faq.jsp#academic academic] institutions. Hosting required.
*** AFAICS ''Jira'' is free for non-profit organisations, but ''Jira Studio'' isn't. --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]
*** Yes, but Jira was the candidate (someone changed it to Jira Studio?), while Jira Studio is something else as it is ''more'' than just Jira. It is Jira + Subversion + FishEye + Confluence + Greenhopper + Bamboo + Crucible in a hosted environment... -- Jeroen Wesbeek
** Doesn't have SCM! --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]
*** Not true as there are many [https://plugins.atlassian.com/search/by/jira plugins] providing VCS integration to link commits to bug resolvements (like the [https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugin/details/291 SVN plugin]) and there are also several plugins to integrate JIRA into your IDE ([http://www.atlassian.com/software/ideconnector/eclipse.jsp Eclipse], [http://www.atlassian.com/software/ideconnector/intellij.jsp Intellij]). JIRA really is the most full featured platform in my opinion and I have used it for 2.5 years at my previous employer with [http://www.perforce.com/ Perforce] integration. It definitely has my vote... --Jeroen Wesbeek
**** Are these plugins available for Jira as well, or only for Jira Studio? --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]
**** They ''are'' available for [https://plugins.atlassian.com/search/by/jira JIRA], and ''not'' for JIRA Studio (as the latter is a full featured hosted platform --> [http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRASTUDIO/JIRA+Studio+Plugin+Policy JIRA Studio comes with a set of pre-defined plugins]. Customers are not permitted to install new plugins or remove existing plugins. Requests for additional plugins should be created as feature requests in the JIRA Studio project] ). Of course except for the client IDE integration plugins as these are obviously client specific. -- Jeroen Wesbeek
*** It does not have integrated e.g. SVN support, but that is not a problem, as SCM is an "invisible horse". Maybe ACL for SCM might be a problem... --[[User:Dmitry Katsubo|Dmitry Katsubo]].
**** While JIRA does not natively support version integration it '''''can''''' integrate with version control systems through [http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/tour/plugins.jsp plugins] ([https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugin/details/291 svn], [https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugin/details/4984 git], [https://plugins.atlassian.com/plugin/details/15380 perforce], etc), see my remark above as well. It can also -for example- integrate with [https://hudson.dev.java.net/ Hudson] using a connector plugin to execute builds and display build statuses from within JIRA. -- Jeroen Wesbeek
**** Could you explain what you mean by "invisible horse"? I want to be able to browse through revisions, changesets and side-by-side diffs. --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]
** Use http://codehaus.org/ with no hosting? --[[User:Dmitry Katsubo|Dmitry Katsubo]]
*** Nice for individual projects, but not really suitable for a BioAssist group containing many projects -- Jeroen Wesbeek

* [http://trac.edgewall.org/ TRAC]
** Open source, hosting required
** We have some experience with [http://www.molgenis.org molgenis] and [http://www.xgap.org xgap] --[[User:Mswertz|Morris Swertz]]
** SARA has experience with hosting Trac. --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]
** There are some people writing on the net about their comparative experience, coming to Trac from elsewhere; eg [http://www.cubiclemuses.com/cm/blog/archives/000277.html/ comparison] and [http://lists.edgewall.com/archive/trac/2006-April/007535.html migration question] --[[User:Rob Hooft|Rob Hooft]] 20:10, 18 January 2010 (CET)

* [http://www.bugzilla.org/ Bugzilla]
** Open source, hosting required

* [http://www.redmine.org/ RedMine]
** Open source, hosting required

* [http://intland.com/products/cb/overview.html CodeBeamer]
** Open source, hosting required

* [http://code.google.com/ Google code]
** No hosting required.
** I don't think GoogleCode allows us to create our own, distinctively stylized, BioAssist project group. --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]

* [https://launchpad.net/ Launchpad]
** No hosting required.
** Supports only [[Bazaar]] SCM. (but can import CVS and Subversion repo's) --[[User:Pieterb|Pieter van Beek]]
