Announcing Cart

Hi all,

I may be off my rocker, but I've decided to put together a Trac competitor.

I'm the current maintainer of trac+bzr, and my feeling is that Trac and
Bazaar are too different to ever support a clean, fast experience.  And
there are also a few things I think could be improved about Trac's bug
tracking system.

Differences from Trac
- ---------------------

- - "priority" refers to the order that issues will be dealt with.
- - no wiki functionality (unless someone can explain why it belongs there)
- - Branches and tickets may belong to "subprojects", which are used for
grouping purposes.  In the Bazaar project, bzr might be one subproject,
and bzr-gtk might be another.
- - Bugs may be associated with revisions that introduced the issue and
revisions that resolved the issue
- - Bugs may have dependencies on other Bugs.


Relationship to other projects
- ------------------------------

Launchpad: competitor.  If launchpad were open source, Cart wouldn't
make as much sense.
Loggerhead: plan to share code with Loggerhead, once we've whipped
something usable up.
Trac: steal ideas


Help wanted
- -----------
I don't have wads of time, and I'd love some help with this.
