<title>Bugzilla Variants and Competitors</title>
<para>I created this section to answer questions about Bugzilla competitors
and variants, then found a wonderful site which covers an awful lot of what
I wanted to discuss. Rather than quote it in its entirety, I'll simply
refer you here:

<section id="rhbugzilla" xreflabel="Red Hat Bugzilla">
<title>Red Hat Bugzilla</title>
<para>Red Hat Bugzilla is probably the most popular Bugzilla variant on
the planet. One of the major benefits of Red Hat Bugzilla is the ability
to work with Oracle, MySQL, and PostGreSQL databases serving as the
back-end, instead of just MySQL. Dave Lawrence has worked very hard to
keep Red Hat Bugzilla up-to-date, and many people prefer the
snappier-looking page layout of Red Hat Bugzilla to the default
Mozilla-standard formatting.</para>

<section id="variant-fenris" xreflabel="Loki Bugzilla, a.k.a. Fenris">
<title>Loki Bugzilla (Fenris)</title>
<para>Fenris was a fork from Bugzilla made by Loki Games; when
Loki went into receivership, it died. While Loki's other code lives on,
its custodians recommend Bugzilla for future bug-tracker deployments.
</para>
</section>
<section id="variant-issuezilla" xreflabel="Issuezilla">
<title>Issuezilla</title>
<para>Issuezilla was another fork from Bugzilla, made by collab.net and
hosted at tigris.org. It is also dead; the primary focus of bug-tracking
at tigris.org is their Java-based bug-tracker,
<xref linkend="variant-scarab"/>.</para>

<section id="variant-scarab" xreflabel="Scarab">
<title>Scarab</title>
<para>Scarab is a new bug-tracking system built using Java
Serlet technology. It is currently at version 1.0 beta 7.</para>

<title>Perforce SCM</title>
<para>Although Perforce isn't really a bug tracker, it can be used as
such through the <quote>jobs</quote>
functionality.</para>

<title>SourceForge</title>
<para>SourceForge is a way of coordinating geographically
distributed free software and open source projects over the Internet.
It has a built-in bug tracker, but it's not highly thought of.</para>
