Oh dear, I'm afraid I'm suffering from a bit of "Can't you read my mind?"
syndrome. Yes, details are usually helpful.
Eight people will be using this system initially. I would imagine we'd
want to be able to add 5 more users in the near future, who knows how many
after that. Most likely the program should be Windows NT-based. We would
consider multi-purpose software, but bug-tracking is our priority right
now. Also, a Web-based client is attractive since several of us
occasionally work off-site.
