Basically, it’s a good solution if you’re using any kind of pastebin website to share patches and get people to review it. It has syntax highlighting, a pretty good diff viewer. You can alter the patches and add comments,... It’s still a beta so expect rough edges, but it’s really neat. It’s not really a replacement for a bugtracker, but it completes it quite well IMHO.

I’ve created an account for each developer, following the model forums.freebsd.org is using (‘@’ as a suffix). There doesn’t seem to be a way to reset a lost password, so I have to choose between setting a default password for everybody, asking interested people to mail me a password hash (algo$salt$hash, e.g. sha1$$<hash>, django supports a few algorithms), or just delete all the accounts and let people register themselves (I would just need to promote them with a ‘@’ afterwards).

Oh yeah, it’s happening here. Feel free to send bug reports upstream (when appropriate).

Comments? Suggestions?
