Redmine has three disadvantages (which are probably related):
1. It's ruby-on-rails. We don't use that framework on our servers yet, so
there might be quite some work involved to make it fit our configuration
2. It seems to have performance issues (eg.
http://www.mail-archive.com/sharpos-developers@lists.sourceforge.net/msg01439.html)
3. rails doesn't seem stable (can't say much about its execution qualities,
but its APIs seem to be rather fluid). I'd like to avoid a maintenance
mess.

That's why I didn't look any closer at implementing it, when there are more
obvious choices. Of course, if there's some important feature that indefero
lacks (and can't provide), I'd try.
