<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="variant-redhat">
<title>Red Hat Bugzilla</title>
<para>Red Hat's old fork of Bugzilla which was based on version 2.8 is now
obsolete. The newest version in use is based on version 2.17.1 and is in
the process of being integrated into the main Bugzilla source tree. The
back-end is modified to work with PostgreSQL instead of MySQL and they have
custom templates to get their desired look and feel, but other than that it
is Bugzilla 2.17.1. Dave Lawrence of Red Hat put forth a great deal of
effort to make sure that the changes he made could be integrated back into
the main tree.
<ulink url="http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98304">Bug 98304</ulink>
exists to track this integration.

<section id="variant-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.

<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,

It has a built-in bug tracker, but it's not highly thought of.</para>
