It bothers a bunch of us, especially those of us who lived through the Cold War; I spent my career designing and programming products to end that, then had my career destroyed by the end of it. But this is not the place; this is where good programmers and engineers come to learn how to do their jobs or hobbies better. We are a community devoted to helping each other to become better at what we do; we're not here to change the world. There are other forums for that, lots of them. Please do join them, and support them; this is an existential issue that should concern all of us. But not here...
By the way, don't believe the lamestream media reports on the Trucker Convoy in the US. I was there, freezing my butt off, at their first stop after setting off from the Peoples' Republic of California. The media reported a couple dozen trucks; I lost count at somewhere around 70, and they just kept coming. At that time, the convoy was 8 miles long; today it was reported to be 27 miles long. Our fearless leader is, of course, hiding in his basement, as usual. There's a lot of coverage out there about the Ukraine situation; please do keep in touch with this. But this is not the place for it, unless you have a software fix that can make it better.
Good Lord, I'd love to see a SaveUkraine patch in my Windows Update display...

Thank you very much for remembering us. I've got no idea about @BohdanStupak, but I'm just positive and alive, right at the moment. Although, God knows what will happen in a couple of days, later on. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
Anyway, please don't be in worry about us and that military conflict in Ukraine. I hope, most of us will *NOT* be hurt by the war, and everything will be just fine and will get back to normal, finally, after its end.
Thanks a lot for your post.

Thank you very much for your feedback and your positive words. Nevertheless I'm worried about the situation of the people who have to live in that desaster.
All the best for you all

And all the best, and you as well, , and for keeping in mind about us.

By the way, do you know that there're two more members from Ukraine: Volodymyr Zakalyk @Deohayer and Sergii Syrovatchenko @sergiisyrovatchenko from the city of Kharkiv. Did you try to contact them, as well?
Also, JFYI, the war conflict is getting closer to the west of Ukraine, and the situation becomes even more serious, though. That's why, a few days ago, I replied to you that I'm just normal so far, but not knowing what will be later.
Anyway, I'll inform you about that later on, if something cruel would have happened.

Hello, I only 'know' you both, triggered by your articles, therefore I contacted only you both.
It breaks my heart and mind to be safe here knowing someone is in danger just beside me

Thanks for your reply. I just wanted to inform you that there are more than two members located in Ukraine. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Once again, please don't treat my reply post as overly optimistic, since, I'm okay, though, for sure, and believe that anyway, this war will come to an end.
Also, if you'd like to get any news from Ukraine at war, please just feel free to let me know about it in your ongoing reply posts to this thread.

Also, I'm presently focused on my studies and article writing, as always, not paying too much attention and not worrying so much about this terrible time and what's going on out there.
The same I would recommend to everyone in this area and the rest of the world.

Hoping and praying that the conflict ends soon. And peace returns to your beautiful country.

Thanks a lot for not staying silent, and for you have not bypassed the terrifying war conflict in Ukraine.

Hopefully!

It is not an easy matter to decide which information can still be trusted ....

There're so many news channels about Ukraine online. However, many of them are in Russian or Ukrainian. That's why I suggested bbc.com as the most interesting news channel about the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, in English.
Although, there might be other news of your choice or any other non-English news translated with Google Translate, such as that I've previously posted.

Another nuclear threat in Ukraine - Hours ago, the nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia was assaulted by Russian armed forces.
Horror!!!

Hi, there. Finally, I'm wondering if you could contact @BohdanStupak? If not, still don't worry because he probably resettled somewhere else from Kyiv, until the war situation ended. I tried to contact him as well, by sending him a message on LinkedIn, but still haven't got his response.

No feedback from him
Are you safe at least?
What I'm reading here in the news is very sad. Kyiv something like just before taken over by the Russians?
|
|
|
|
|
And yes, I'm safe now. Lviv, where I'm presently located, has not been taken by Russians, yet.
|
|
|
|

Thank you for asking. I'm fine and alive as well. It was scary the first couple of days since they threw their best people to occupy Kyiv and nobody was sure what to expect. However, now we've got used to it. Russians keep bombing civilian infrastructure so you can never be sure but still it's much better than in Kharkiv or Mariupol.

The title should really be: "Fantastic Bug-Tracker / Heldesk software combinations and Where to Find Them".
At the moment we are using a self-hosted version of JIRA, but as support for the self-hosted version will end and JIRA will be online only, we are looking for a good alternative.
I have been searching for days, but it seems there is an enormous gap between bug-tracking and helpdesk software.
A possible candidate seems to be GitKraken (offered by Axosoft), but I wonder if that will suit all our needs.
Ideally the software should tick the following boxes:
- Windows
- Self-hosted
- Bug-tracking
- Helpdesk
- Git integration
And the following would be nice:
- Open-source / C#
- PostgreSQL support
I took a look at Budoco (Bug tracker for Dotnet Core) which is open-source, uses PostgreSQL and is cross-platform as a bonus.
See this overview: best-free-bug-tracking-tools-for-programming[^]
After some struggling with VS-Code and ASP-NET Core 5, which I'm not used to, I got Budoco running.
Although surely useable as a basic bug-tracker, it would take a lot of work to add helpdesk functionality and a more attractive user interface (that's also useable by non-programmers), so this will not be the best choice for us.
So if anyone has a better suggestion, I would like to hear about it!
