Yes, quite so. It is written in PHP and supports MySQL and PostgreSQL,
and has generally come with good incremental upgrade scripts.

Absolutely. In addition to that, it supports:
- Custom fields at the project or bug entry level.
- Flexible, exportable reporting.
- Multiple levels of user access and privilege (custom configurable if
necessary, but default built-ins work well) so as to limit authority
to view, submit, and resolve or delete bugs. Configurable per project
if needed.
- Easy release notes generation.
- Configurable e-mail notification of users for virtually all events.
- Linkage of bug entries to each other causally (e.g. depends on,
child of, related to, etc.)
- SVN and Git integration via plugins.
- Colour-coding for easy visual classification of severity of bugs, or
subject matter affiliation, etc.
It's a clean, straightforward and functional interface for technical
people that neither tries to be overly polished, nor bizarre and
recondite.
