Helios ALM Platform

We have developped, as part of the Helios project, a server add-on for the Mantis bugtracker compatible with the OSLC-CM specifications. Unfortunately, its developers are now working on other projects (including porting the same codebase for ... [More] FusionForge trackers), so the code may no longer be improved, unless new contributors show up. If you’re using Mantis and need [...] [Less]

The Helios project, that was funded as part of the “FUI/Pôle de Compétitivité” french cluster programme has officially come to an end after 2 years for work, as the final review has just happened on Nov. 24 2010.

The development of the Helios platform has been done in a collaborative way, among the partners of the Helios project, and has aimed from the start at releasing software under FLOSS licenses. Still, and despite the move to a SF.net hosted project since early 2010, the project was mainly a closed community of co-funded partners, working [...]

We’ve uploaded a series of four screencasts that demonstrate some features of the Mantis add-on we have developped as part of the Helios project. Watch them online here : OSLC Service discovery screencast for Mantis OSLC-CM server add-on. Enjoy !

We have contributed our prototype of Mantis plugin that should help supporting OAuth (server/provider) in Mantis. That should help integrate with other apps, for instance in order to allow creation of tickets in the bugtracker by remote web apps on ... [More] behalf of Mantis users. See the initial feature request, and the code. We hope other Mantis developers will [...] [Less]

Steve Speicher at IBM/Rational has blogged about OSLC reference implementations and test suites. He’s been kind to link to our implementation, which uses Zend framework in PHP, and will provide an Open Source OSLC-CM V1 server component for the Open ... [More] Source Mantis bugtracker (and later for FusionForge trackers too). I hope people can learn how OSLC-CM V1 [...] [Less]

As part of the Helios project we’ve been studying bugtracker artifacts and relationships between bugs reported in different bugtrackers, and with software packages for which bugs are reported as found or fixed in. Our concern is to be able to model ... [More] relationships between bugs reported in different projects or distributions bugtrackers, and help package maintainers navigate [...] [Less]
