Hi all,
Thank you all luggies for giving suggestions. I have decided to go in
for redmine. Any difficulties in configuring it will post it. I
appreciate one and all for their response to help me out. Thanks once
again
Thanks and Regards
Bala

The web has a GUI interface and so does mail so that may not be the
point.
IMHO one difference is where the data is kept. With trac/redmine, the
discussion is on the web site. So if you want a local copy you need
to run something like wwwoffle and you need to subscribe to an RSS
feed to know when something has been commented on. Mail subscription
is sometimes possible but I am not sure how well these systems would
scale if 100's of people e-mail subscribed to various pages.
In the case of bugzilla, the discussion is archived centrally but
each subscriber gets a copy through mail _without_ additional
configuration. This copy can be kept for local reference by saving to
a folder.
In an increasingly networked world it is easy to forget where your
data actually is (and who controls it. ;-) ).
On the other hand creating discussion summaries over mail is really
much harder than doing it in a wiki like in trac. Reading through a
thread to figure out what the conclusion(s) was/were is terrible.
Kapil.
