I've pretty well completed my assessment of Allura at SourceForge, and find the
facilities available pretty well match our needs, in fact they are surprisingly
similar to those at GoogleCode. There are some differences but none which we
can't live with. So far so good.
However, there is a show-stopper concerning the integrity of the Issues
discussions recorded in the tracker. Each item in the discussion has an owner,
and this is set to Anonymous during the import, since the original owner is not
recognised as a SourceForge account-holder. This in itself is not a serious
problem, as the correct owner is recorded in the text of the message. However,
owners of discussion messages are always permitted to edit them, irrespective
of the permission settings, and I can find no way of preventing this. That
means Anonymous, which is any not-logged-in user, i.e. anyone, will be able to
edit, accidently or maliciously, any and all discussion entries in our Issues
DB.
I've reported this to the SourceForge maintainers:
