Bug reporting for KDE 4

[Diego Iastrubni]

I have seen Mantis in action (in Asterisk, see: 
http://bugs.digium.com/main_page.php) and I am not really impressed. I 
am much more impressed by Trac (see example here: 
http://trac.edgewall.org/report/1 ) as a source-browser + ticket 
integration. Lets ignore the crappy wiki, even tough it has kick-ass 
integration with the whole system.


Setting up trac is also easy (I like the stand alone daemon 
implementation + proxy, much better then fast-cgi).
