First of all, this is a fantastic project, and you've done a great job. I'm very excited for its continued development, and hope to contribute myself at some point.

Having installed the latest code from the git repo, and gotten the basic system working, I notice that a few basic features are buggy. What's the best way to report the bugs? I put an issue onto github last night, but I notice nobody has updated the issues in a month. Has osqa.net become the de facto place to report issues?

For reference, the things I notice buggy are: 1. openID doesn't seem to work 2. the built-in reg system gives an error on creating an account, but creates it anyway 3. editing a question adds HTML markup 4. upvoting questions or answers pops up an error box but seems to work anyway

I have an unmodified version of the project running at http://x.goproblems.com">link:http://x.goproblems.com in case anyone wants to see.

Hello, great question. Probably here. We do use JIRA system for the developers but it's kind of dorky. I don't think users will like it. Labeling the question with tag "bug" will do.

Cheers.

Ok, since the new auth system is still undocumented I'll try to do my best here to assist you.

First thing, if you're upgrading you'll need to do a syncdb to install the new database tables. Then, if you have already some users using open id, you'll need to migrate that info to the new schema, there's a script, that is still not on the repo, to do that job. If that's your case, please drop me a mail to hernani at dzone.com and I'll send it to you.

Next, if you plane to use facebook or twitter as authentication systems you need to grab some keys from there sites.

Twitter: https://twitter.com/apps

You'll need to setup the application website, and the callback url which is the website plus /account/twitter/done/ In the end of the form there's also a checkbox to enable login.

Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/developers/

Important settings here are connect -> connect url, and advanced -> email domain, otherwise facebook won't share the users email address.

Put those keys under forum_modules/facebookauth/settings.py and forum_modules/oauthauth/settings.py.

If you don't want to use those you can just disable the modules placing an empty file named exactly DISABLED on the root of each (I know this is a foolish way of doing this, but is sort of a temporary solution).

If after that you still get some problems, just get back here and fill out your problem and I'll try to help you as quick as I can.

With less activity in issue tracker I'm skeptic this project will be abandoned the future. I want to use OSQA as our organizations forum and want to know whether you will provide support for a fee.
