Time tracker + Issue Tracker 

Hi All,

I need to club the issue and time tracker into one single project along with their database,Stored procedures. I know this is not the relevant site to ask any way this is very good site for issue tracker documentation. I contact www.asp.net site but no answer for my post. So i posted here, Could you please help me to do this task. Give some good URL's where they are doing this... 

Thanks in advance,

Venkatesh

Re: Time tracker + Issue Tracker 
Well hello there,
First let me say thanks so much for making a post here in my forums.  It is nice to get that first post from a user on a new site or in my case after my site has been reworked from its former version.

I believe I have seen your post over in the asp.net forums and I think some others have asked about this but I do not believe anyone has gone public with any comments or information pertaining to any project that they may be undertaking to combine the two starter kits into one. 

I personally have not worked with the Time Tracker Starter Kit yet, the need for me just has not arisen yet but I am sure it will as I continue with my work. 

What would help me in understanding the overall goal and objective you have is to learn from you what sort of features, abilities, functions, etc., from a time tracking perspective you would be looking to have included in an issue tracking type system?   I ask this because I have for some time wanted to create my own issue tracking system, open source of course, that would be based on the .NET 2.0 technologies and SQL 2005 technologies.

If you would like to answer the above question to give me some ideas that would help me in my planning of the issue tracking system let me know and I can give you an email address to reach me at so that you can provide the details there rather than here in a forum type message.

Re: Time tracker + Issue Tracker 
Thank you for your reply.  No need to worry about not checking back on the message board for awhile, I understand how busy everyones schedule can be and I too get very busy at times and it takes me awhile to get back on things like this which I do in my own personal time.

Yes, I am planning on creating my own issue tracker type system.  Naturally I will name it something else because I do not want to attempt to take over an existing name or anything of that nature.  What I am planning on using is ASP.NET for sure, more specifically the .NET 2.x version so that I can take advantage of such things as Master Pages and other enhancements that .NET 2.x brought to us.  While I do have my own personal copy of Visual Studio.NET Professional edition, I want to create the application in the format that is usable with the Visual Web Developer Express product so that it can be a truly Open Source project allowing others who do not purchase Visual Studio but wish to extend the project further can do so with the Express edition.

Along those same lines, I am planning on using SQL Server 2005 as the database store, but again doing so in a manner so that for those who only have access to the Express edition can utilize the project. 

This gives a general overview of what I am thinking of and of my desire to have something that is Open Source so that it is of benefit to those who wish to make use of it.  I do not plan to take the present Issue Tracker system and just covert it to .NET 2.x code through the VS.NET conversion wizard.  There are so many things lacking within the present Issue Tracker and the differences so vast between ASP.NET 2.x and 1.x in terms of features and functions that are available that I just do not want to try going the conversion route.  I would rather start fresh from the ground up as they say and do something somewhat similar but yet somewhat different as well.  While the initial release will almost certainly not have any time tracking type features in it, I would like to have that type of ability brought on board in a later release and so the ground structure would be built with that in mind.  So eventually there would be no need for a separate time tracker type system to try to blend in with the project because those features would be built right into it. 

For the moment I will let this posting be a glimpse into what I have in mind of doing.  When I get to the point of having some documentation written up that covers things in more detail I'll post them on this site in the projects area that is yet to be created.
