Hosted bug tracking system with mercurial repositories (Summary of options & request for opinions)

Question

Have a look at bitbucket. Mercurial hosting as well as issue tracker and wiki. If you don't need to host the stuff on your own server it might fit your requirements.

It's still in development, but you may want to inquire as to whether Fog Creek's Kiln would suite your needs.

Take a look at Codebase.

They can host Mercurial, Git and Subversion repositories (SSH, HTTPS). And have additional features like account management, tickets & milestones, project management, time/deployment tracking, project wikis.

I use Project Kenai which is backed by sun (now oracle). According to the latest communcation, the site will stay up and its infrastructure will be expanded to accept projects from java.net. It should be around for a while.

I checked and rechecked, even read the actual terms of Use and stuff and I can't find anything that prevents you from using it for a commercial purpose (needs to be double checked though). There are settings which allow you to protect your code and your mailing lists and pretty much every feature of your project. (The jira needs to be administered on its jira page It seems that you can't change the jira permission settings).

All this for free. I probably missed something as it seems too good to be true...
