Ask HN: What do you use for issue tracking?

Google Code's issue tracker is great, but can't be used for closed-source projects. What simple (not bugzilla) issue tracker do you use and why?

I use Redmine (http://www.redmine.org/) on a VPS (RimuHosting). Pretty easy to setup even for a Java developer who's barely looked at Ruby or RoR (like me).

This question has been asked before: you might have a look at the archives. I use Redmine, github's thing, Google code... depending on the project. It doesn't matter all that much. If you want something in-house, Redmine or Trac are both ok.

http://www.bitbucket.org (because I use mercurial as my SCM, and bitbucket is fast, cheap and solid)

We use a combination of Tender for front-end support and Lighthouse for issue management. Lighthouse has nice integration with Tender and Github.
