Of course, that may not work... At my previous employer (R.I.P.), I introduced them to the wonders of CVS and bug tracking systems. I thought they were great. The other linux-friendly programmer loved them in principle, but rarely used them. The Windows-zealot-consultant bitched and moaned about being asked to use something which didn't come from Redmond, even after I showed him how to integrate CVS into the MS IDE. And the QA guy (yeah, we needed more than one tester and I kept telling management to get more of them, but it was a small company and one was all they'd give us) absolutely hated me for insisting that he file bugs in a trackable fashion instead of just walking over and saying, "X isn't working".

But that company doesn't exist any more... Small wonder.
