You might well be pleasantly surprised. We've been using Redmine where
I work for about 6-8 months and I'm really impressed with it, I'd
definitely say it was better than Google Code, Trac and SF. The
Redmine website is actually a Redmine tracker (
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine ) so you can get a fair idea
how it works.

I don't think it's set in stone that we're switching to Redmine, I
think Scott's just setting it up as an experiment to get feedback.
