Wow - this looks slick. I've struggled through GForge, Sourceforge, Collabnet and others. They all do a lot, but there is always something naggingly missing, and that causes us to degenerate to 'best-of-breed'. Looking forward to checking this out!!

I have used Visual Studio but for Java projects I use Eclipse. I agree that it would be good to connect with a bug tracker though. I used Jira recently. Very neat.
