Hey I am so excited about this project and the effort. I am sad to see that the TED conference has been canceled in SA and I would love to see this become success.
I am open to helping out in any way possible. My wife and I are returning to SA in Aug/Sept after having lived in the USA for almost 15 years.
These kind of projects are what make me excited about going back.
Thanks for the update.
Saul

@Dave - thanks man, will check it out

@Bredo and Tom - number one rule of a startup is not to build anything you don’t have to, or which is not critical to your business…. so hosted solutions are always (IMHO) better options than “DIY” options… time is money.

Aren’t you suppose to be in tech? Why not just write one? Pretty simple stuff.

I haven’t used this myself but I know the folks who built it and it looks like a pretty mature ticketing system. They use it to run one of their businesses.

Hi,
Don’t know if you’ve solved this, but I really like the assembla.com workspaces. Not sure about the email part, but they have a REST API that allows you to create tickets - you could quickly knock up something that turns the email into a REST request… check out http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/breakoutdocs/Ticket_REST_API

cheers,

Awesome. I was banging my head against a wall trying to get this working at MT. The piece I was missing what the “http.inc file, which is located in the /var/www/vhosts/$domain/conf folder.”

A thousand thanks!

Hey Nio

Unfortunately not ;-(
We’re really looking for people to be based in London if they’re going to be full time…

However, we are interested in talking to you about some bounties… Will mail you separately just now.
