Hello,
Is it possible to add comments once a bug has been submited to the FPC bugs database?
It seems to be only for admins. Password is required.
Thanks.

It is not yet possible. We're working on this.

Why don't you use a bugtracking system like Mantis, Bugzilla, PhpBugTracker, etc... like many projects do?

Because
1. They are overkill
2. I personally prefer to have the website coded in Pascal. (I'm recoding it in pascal)

Glad to hear that. Hope the new system comes soon and has all necessary features.

Where it is hosted?
Will it be opensource?
Are there any previews available?
Is it based on PSP or some other already available web lib?
I think having an opensource pascal written bugtracking system would be great! So please hurry up and show us some code :)

Probably something written from scratch with
bare hands through existing fp cgi classes/objects.
There is a bug reporting system written in EASY language, which is based all on freepascal since it uses TDBEngine. It could have been a good temporary system to place while the other one is being designed, since it is based on FPC. http://www.bug-a-boo.org/
It also requires shell account on server which is one reason I chose not to use it, as you must associate all TDBEngine programs with a CGI program (sort of like an interpretter but actually binary scripts).
Funny, I didn't know about it. Even more, it is developed by a company located 30 km from here.
I'm still waiting for them to respond to me about a TDBEngine interface for FPC without needing EASY. They said they were working on one.
Currently you use EASY to access the database but it would be nice to also be able to just access it through Pascal code directly. In other words a Pascal unit interfacing into tdb.
There is also this project too:

Just out of interest, where is "here" ?
