Some kind people on the Chromium\nproject helped me set an issue tracker up, so now we have one.\n\n https://crbug.com/git\n\nFeel free to file bugs, feature requests, and leftover bits there.\nI'll be happy to triage them to keep the list of bugs meaningful.\nAnyone else wanting to help with bug management can feel free to\ncontact me and I'll grant you permissions to edit issues.\n\nThis particular implementation of an issue tracker is Monorail\n<https://chromium.googlesource.com/infra/infra/+/master/appengine/monorail>.\nIt is similar to the issue tracker that used to run at\ncode.google.com.  If you find things you don't like about the way it\nworks, they accept patches. :)\n\nIt accepts replies to the emails it sends.\n\nThis uses Google accounts to authenticate people filing a bug.  If you\nwould like a Google account for your existing email address, you can\nget one at https://accounts.google.com/SignUpWithoutGmail.\n\nThere is an API for programmatic access to the issue tracker: [2].\nOne thing I would appreciate help with is using that API to make\nregular backups.  The chromium project has their own backups using\ndatabase dumps but I would be happier if multiple people are making\nbackups independently.\n\nThis is an experiment --- I don't know whether it will stick.  The\nconfiguration will likely change as we get experience with it.  I\nexpect to be using it to track my own work for the forseeable future.\nI'd be happy if it is useful to others as well.\n\nThanks,\nJonathan\n\n[1] https://public-inbox.org/git/20170919160753.GA75068@aiede.mtv.corp.google.com/\n    https://public-inbox.org/git/vpqiovpubmh.fsf@anie.imag.fr/\n    https://public-inbox.org/git/7vhay9tqs6.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org/\n    https://public-inbox.org/git/7vehzjugdz.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org/\n    https://public-inbox.org/git/4A1FB1DE.3070904@op5.se/\n[2] https://chromium.googlesource.com/infra/infra/+/master/appengine/monorail/doc/api.md\n"}]}
