Pity. I mean if someone just slapped twitter bootstrap on it and cut out
some of the complexity in some way (a guided setup script?), it'd get us a
bit closer to having a pull request killer.


Anyone else used crucible?
From the pricing page - "Qualified open source
projects<http://www.atlassian.com/software/views/open-source-license-request>
 can receive free subscriptions for Atlassian OnDemand offerings."

https://github.com/rckclmbr/git-crucible implies setup is fairly straight
forward.
http://sandbox.fisheye.atlassian.com/ is the demo.

I have never used it myself, and from a quick exploration I don't see a
"pull request/merge this patch" equivalent. If it had that, or a similar
flow.

It's emphatically *not* open source itself, but it may be worth considering
as a way to mitigate vendor lock-in concerns re Github, and the "on demand"
side of it is just hosting.

My former workplace is literally across the road from Atlassian's Sydney
offices, I'm wondering if I could send a friend down there to ask "what's
qualified, and can we get PEAR setup?"
