How to report issues (link on the website requires Galaxy team membership)
Hi, On the main galaxy page there is a link 'Report Issue' to the bitbucket issue tracker, however since a few weeks it is not possible to view or report issues anymore since it requires membership of the project. This raises two questions: 1. How should issues be reported? 2. How can we see which issues have been reported by others, and most importantly, whether they have been addressed by the Galaxy Team. I think it is very important for any group that maintains a Galaxy instance to have insight in the known issues and fixes, and I hope this information is still available somewhere.

+1 I don't mind the Galaxy team moving the issue tracker elsewhere (as long as it stays public), but having nothing available in the interim is very frustrating. Would it be possible to turn the bitbucket issue tracker back on for the time being? Thanks, Peter

The wiki needs to be updated, thanks for pointing this out. It actually has conflicting instructions, both saying to, and not to, report issues on bitbucket.

We now have a public facing Trello board accessible from galaxyproject.org/trello (direct link to the board is https://trello.com/board/galaxy-development-inbox/50686d0302dfa79d13d90c45). To add new cards simply fill out the form at galaxyproject.org/trello (use markdown for formatting, if desired), but you can comment on and vote for issues directly on the board. All existing bitbucket issues were imported and, though they still need to be sorted out, comments/voting on them are more than welcome. Our hope is that this issue tracker will be a more effective community interface than the bitbucket issues were, with the voting features and simpler visibility. -Dannon
