Just clicking through the version that is online, and so far, I'm
pretty impressed!

I think I'm going to end up dumping project tracker for this, for sure!

Quick Question - is there a way I can enable a public, read only view?

Otherwise, it looks awesome.

I just need to work out a way I can import all my tickets into skweegee.

Yes I was very very impressed too. Must features of Trac are in there.
A few are missing, but Russ told me that he's working on it.

Features that I would like to see:
- Possibility to attach documents to tickets
- Mylyn connector
- PDF export
- RSS

Thanks guys! Mark you were able to see an early version of Skweegee so
you know how far its come!

The public read-only setting is coming. You might could actually
implement it now with a dummy user and the right permissions but there
are a couple things that still arent locked down such as the ability
to create projects. I actually have the fix for that about 95%
completed.

Public settings are high on the list. About the top behind a couple
fixes so it shouldnt be just a few more days and it will be in SVN and
up on the skweegee.com site.

Mark, if you do anything with importing tickets from project tracker,
let me know. I would like to have that script available for people to
use if they would like it. If you dont, I will look into creating it
myself. Feel free to create a ticket at skweegee.com for that if you
would like.

Document support is in the works now as well. Probably about 50% done.

Mylyn - I have started reading about the generic connector which is no
doubt what it will take to implement. Probably going to just create a
couple facade methods for the connector to handle authentication and
all in the form that Mylyn wants it.

RSS feeds and PDF export are planned as well. All in due time!

Thanks for the positive feedback guys! Its really inspirational!

Russ, you're doing an excellent job man!

I think a lot of people will switch from Trac to Skweegee.

Ohh yea!! I would love to switch my 4gb trac DB to skweegee, lol!!

I just need to see the wiki stuff, to see how it can be imported.

Wiki is on the way as well.. its actually written but I have to add the multi-project support as well as a few cleanups.

Im using Textile on some of the other fields for formatting and it works great as well. I think Im going to give the option per project to use wiki-markup or Textile for formatting.

On the wiki-markup, Im using the same parser that you used for CodeX I believe Luis.
