Hi Simon,
I had noticed Woof and it does seem interesting and worthy of analysis.
I should point out that the Ogmode community have the same problems and
complaints regarding the governance and efficacy of issue/bug tracking. This is
a socio-technological problem, which hopefully has solutions which can cut
across communities.
Its also worth citing some of the suggestions in this devel-guix thread
concerning tooling or options:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-08/msg00042.html
Suggestions included:
Bugs Everywhere https://bugs-everywhere.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
Git-Issue https://github.com/dspinellis/git-issue
Fossil https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/bugtheory.wiki
IMHO, I though Bugs Everywhere was the most interesting, though it may have
experienced some bitrot.
More recently I have been deliberating on the idea of using a MUD type tool as
an interface for issue and bugtracking.
It seems that Powwow would be capable of using scripts in an interesting way.
https://www.hoopajoo.net/static/powwow-mirror/powwow/index.html
This interests me:
```
Powwow also implements the MUME remote editing protocol, which enables you to
edit texts on the MUD using your own favourite editor, several texts at once if
you have a windowing terminal.
```
Im also investigating Tintin++
https://tintin.mudhalla.net/
I personally would find it interesting to create 'conversational models' for
issue/bug tracking in such an environment, backed by:
* interoperability with computing environments
* interpreting infrastructure
* projectile style configurations
* supplementary protocols
* light writing formats
* configs and bindings to provide workflow
A MUD type inferface is perhaps only a speculative concern but Id be interested
in hearing -/+ opinions and interest levels, if not practical suggestions.
As some may be aware, I have been considering the issue/bug tracking topic from
the perspective of the Gemini protocol (though now with a wider scale than just
comsidering Debbugs).
That is proceeding, though I was impeeded by some physical setbacks
(status:resolved) and completing wider responsibilities. Now back in the flow,
I will provide updates once my projects start perculating.
@Arun please mail me privately regarding your plans, Id like to hear about
where they may be intersections.
@Christine I look forward to replying to your (private) mail in due course -
apoligies for radio silence. If you have suggestions regarding how Guix can go
MUD Im sure we'd all be interested!
Kind regards,
