== Project Description ==
Trac is an open source Project management and bug tracking system. It is the system currently employed to keep track of bugs for Pidora. As with everything on the internet, there are those that use it as it is intended; but you also have a group of people that derive pleasure by abusing it and spamming the system(bunch of jerks!). There are many available modules to help control the incoming spam. While spam cannot be completely eliminated, it can be significantly reduced, and what is able to squeeze in through the automated controls, is easily dealt with by the administrator.

While Originally I have the option of continuing had thought to use keep Trac or switching , and simply upgrade any necessary components to BugZilla, I believe I will continue with implement [http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/SpamFilter Tracspam filtering modules]. However, as much after being informed of the current version of the system, it is already implemented (however seems it would be equal effort begin from scratch. In light of this does not mean I am closed BugZilla seems to be the idea of switching to BugZillabetter choice; should this avenue show more promise in having been originally developed and used by the future)Mozilla Project. Trac has several internal Also, it is currently employed by " [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Foundation Mozilla Foundation], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation Wikimedia Foundation], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebKit WebKit], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA NASA], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!

I This avenue may prove to be more robust in the future as it will update this section lend to better performance and scalability. Trac on the other hand is currently deploying version 1.0 as the stable release, the previous version (and installed currently as I get a chance to test the different options availablebug tracker for Pidora) is version 0.12.

=== Tracking ===
Trac While there isn't much version control needed, I may use git to track Trac? =)keep changes to configuration files as I work on them.
<!-- Describe the tracking mechanisms you are using for your project (bugzilla, trac, github, ...) -->
<!-- Note: Each student must have unique goals. These goals may be ''related'' to other students' work, but must be ''distinct'' and ''attainable'' regardless of the state of the other students' work. For example, under the umbrella of one project title, one student may work on packaging a piece of software and another may work on documentation, or one may work on solving one bug and another on solving another bug, but two students must not work on the same bug or depend on the other students' work in order to be able to complete their own project. -->

After much testing on virtual machines, I have successfully installed Bugzilla on the production server expected to host this service. I have tried to match the current bug tracking system on Trac, interface wise, so current users should not notice too much different in using it.
I will now be attempting to customize the site, and hopefully get the Pidora logo to show up on the front page. I am by no means a web developer, and my limited perl skills have been sitting on a shelf for well over a year. Wish me luck!
