Anybody knows "Mingle" ?
-
Hi, I've stumbled upon Mingle from ThoughtWorks Studios (http://studios.thoughtworks.com/mingle-project-intelligence[^]) and as it looked kind of promising I installed the windows version on my laptop and on a test server. The laptop install doesn't work with FireFox (produces some strange java.io.IOException) and the server install won't let me delete a project I created for test purposes. I posted a message to their bug reports forum (http://studios.thoughtworks.com/discussion/forums[^]) but after being in a "pending" state (the forum is moderated) it has disappeared. Now - has anybody here any experience with Mingle? Does it work? Is it well supported? Is it just a small project being blown up by "web 2.0 hype"? It is build with Ruby (which I know absolutely nothing about) - does that add any special requirements to the browser / Java setup on the computer the software is running on? Should I install some kind of ruby-package? Ah well, hoping to hear from you :) BR /Jan

Reading the blurb, it sounds more like hype than something with any real substance. It may bring value to a development, but I suspect that will be like other "management" tools and actually get in the way of doing your job.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.
