The distribution file gnats-3.999.2.tar.gz is available via anonymous FTP from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnats/ GNU GNATS is a set of tools for tracking bugs reported by users to a central site. It allows problem report management and communication with users through various means, including e-mail, Web and a network daemon. GNATS stores all the information about problem reports in its databases, consisting of plain text files and it provides tools for querying, editing and maintaining these databases. GNU GNATS 4 is almost a full rewrite compared with GNATS 3. New features since the last official release, 3.113.1, include: - Vastly improved customization, allowing sites to customize many aspects of GNATS behavior, especially to define custom fields of any supported type. - Improved network daemon: It now allows direct problem report submission, it can verify the contents of problem reports before they are submitted and it provides more database setup information to the remote tools. - Much more powerful database queries. - Password encryption. Changes since the first beta release include: - Many bug-fixes. - The manual is now fully compliant with GNATS 4. - Gnatsweb 3.99.4 (4.0 beta 4) is included.
