Good point to create accessible bug tracker for Geany:) AFAIK you don't want use GitHub Issues so people report bugs elsewhere.
sf is working for 99,9% of people ok ... ;)
Well, only 99.9% of the people that actually manage to make bug/feature requests. We just don't hear from the rest. :(
It's often not working right for me, losing comments, and being really slow.
Agree SF is terribly slow.
(Sorry, github is the same stupid vendor locking as SF is. I will not move from one tracker with issues to another. Maybe sometime somebody will have the time to setup a own instance, it would be good. But to be honest, I didn't see some just working solution for years. They all suck at some point)
Yes, all bug trackers suck in some way. Anybody wanna make a Geany bugtracker plugin? ;-)
You can freely export bug tracker stuff out of both sourceforge and github, neither one really locks you in.
Yes both can export JSON, and github can import it (I didn't look at SF import, I want out not in :-).
Simply use your favourite scripting language (eg Python) to convert one to the other.
The thing with Github is you get better integration with source code, like closing bugs from commit messages, closing bugs when associated PRs are closed, linking with source code, and also it means users don't have to have to have multiple logins and stuff (same could be said for using Github wikis
And github website, then Geany would only need its own server for sweetgeany :)
github is not free -- even I like that page too. So who will sign, that you will be able to epxort bugs etc. in maybe 1 year, 2 years? This is what I mean when I say vendor lockin.
