Roach Logo



This is a Change Request (CR) "bug" tracking system that I wrote and constantly updated for my work at Lockdown Networks. We used it for six years and it served us well. It's more light weight than Bugzilla, and much nicer than Mantis (IMHO).

  • Note the XML RSS feed and also the export to CSV features.
  • There are also some nice milestone graphs generated and developer statistics.
  • It will auto-hyperlink http:// and SVN repository links.
    (we set our's up so ALL SVN commits must have a corresponding Roach CR)
  • Setup a crontab for daily emails to developers of remaining tasks.
  • It also looks much nicer in IE than FF by the way as I use some of the "embrace extend" Microsoft DirectX filters for gradients...

Obviously the text is lorem ipsum and so doesn't make any sense, but it should give an accurate idea of how it works with data.
