[comp.software-eng] automated software support

lipton@odin.m2c.org (Gary Lipton) (02/13/89)

Is there such a thing (either PD or commercial) as a UNIX-based package
for managing software support?  The features of such a package would be:
           > keep track of questions and bug reports of users.
           > keep track of actions taken on above.
           > keep records of who received bug report, who the problem
             was referred to, etc.
           > automated cross-referencing, indexing, summaries, etc. 
We have a primitive in-house utility for all this; I would like to know
if something better exists before I go rewrite the whole thing.
