The DNA Issue Tracker Technology

The DNA issue tracker is based on TWiki, a web based collaborative tool.

It allows multiple users to have modify access to web pages in-band.

Revision control based on RCS is provided by default, and tracking histories of updates is therefore assisted.

Access control is based on user and group privileges.

Cross References

Normally in TWiki, a word with alternating upper and lower case letters is automatically converted into a local hyperlink.

For example: WebHome

This links back to the base document in the DNA collaborative web.

In the DNA Issue Tracker this function is turned off by default.

By putting Double Square braces around a WikiWord, the hyperlinking is turned on. For Example:

Becomes:

Creating new pages is possible by creating a WikiWord which doesn't already exist.

The next time the item is clicked on, it will create a new TWiki web page.

Additionally, WikiWords can be hidden using a relabelling command in square braces:

External hyperlinks are supported, so that document editors can have their own web sites, without relying on the default system, if that suits them.

An example at an issue tracker system is available at: ExampleDoc
