What's the bug tracking module

Great podcast. Dries is an impressive guy. He mentions that their bug tracking system is running on drupal, as a module. I cannot seem to find that module. Any suggestions?

Project Module

The Project Module is what manages the projects (and bug tracking) at drupal.org.

and the cvslog module :D

A suggestion on interviewing.

Hi.

I love this site and think that your tutorials and interviews are great. However I have one comment which I hope comes across as constructive criticism.

When interviewing people, please remember that people listen to learn about the person you are interviewing, not to learn about the interviewer :-)

It's a really easy trap to fall into, especially when it's a topic that the interviewer has a lot of passion for as well. If you listen to the podcast again you'll notice that there are several times when you cut Dries off when he is about to talk about something new, and you spend a lot of time talking when he could be! :-)

It would be fun to do an interview of the Lullabot folk, and then you could talk all you want.

Adam.

Next Episode?

Dude... when's the next episode.... I'm itch'n over here.

Cool interview and Thanks for so much ...

Hi Jeff and Dries

I just plugged in to Your podcast and feel it was worth every single second. Thanks.

The project I am working on is already testing Drupal ( ex.: http://www.monitor.centroamerica.tv/ ) in different ways.

We choose Drupal, because it is so flexible, adaptable and modular. The overall goal for Centroamerica.TV is to become a new kind of media - multi-media or as I like to say FULL-media, interactive on all levels.

It is still a long way to go, and for me, journalist, 51years of age, not exactly easy to follow up on every step.

But hopefully over the next time, we can integrate some younger professionals as partners, so things may speed up.

Again thanks and best wishes.
