I recently saw Phacility's copy (company behind Phabricator code collab tool), and I tell everyone about it: "Phabricator, except you pay money for it."

Actually, the entire Phabricator (http://phabricator.org/) site is so anti-business-y it's delicious. The bottom of the page links to Pokemon. I realize it's just it's own sort of marketing aimed at people like me, but it is worth pointing out.




More Phabricator goodness:

- When closing a ticket, you can choose 'Resolved', 'Invalid', 'Wontfix', or 'Spite'.

- When choosing custom permissions for an object, you can choose allow/deny 'when the moon' 'is full'/'is waning'/'is waxing'/'is new'.

- Submission buttons for text fields are sometimes 'Submit', and sometimes 'Clowncopterize' or 'Avast!' or something equally ridiculous.


About 50% of the bullet points on the site are great too:

Under "Actively Developed":

- Most patches make it better.

- Only some break it.

- Written in PHP so literally anyone can contribute, even if they have no idea how to program.

- Even babies and dogs can contribute.

Or under "Track bugs":

- Keeps track of bugs.

- You can assign them to people.

- Maybe you could fix them eventually. (optional)


Ha, look at their pricing page: http://phacility.com/pricing/


+1 for the starcraft races and the selection of Pokemon.


> The bottom of the page links to Pokemon

I love that, but I wonder if those unrelated links could lower SEO rating slightly. I'm half-joking.
