I guess transifex is on that list now too...

Maybe I am loosing some of my idealism of youth but I have been
increasingly following the principle of 'best tool for the job, preferring
FOSS wherever possible'.....this is something of a degradation of my 'FOSS
or death' outlook, but it proprietary tools are needed to help us make our
project better then so be it.

On the subject of the github tracker - we use it for InaSAFE and I must say
it is 1000000 times better than redmine / trac anything else - its really
simple to use - its a personal failing but I hardly ever look in redmine
because I find it so slow and klunky to work with.

Regards

Tim
