Would anyone be able to get Redmine stuff integrated with Drupal as in users etc?
http://www.redmine.org/
It's one of the best bug tracking/project managers/svn things and it would be awesome if someone could pick sometihng up like this, im also willing to pay for this.

I've just written a module
I've just written a module that I'll be committing soon called "feedmine" - it's not exactly what you're looking for, but it allows end users to post feedback that is inserted directly into Redmine as a ticket.

written a module...

Doug,
This is great- I await the new module with anticipation. Would be willing to give it a beta run from our test site if you need one. Would be more than interested in collaborating on a more active connection to RedMine.

rm security / tables / ruby on rails / php
Doug,
We had a short discussion here at the office and (I) came to a few realizations. One of which threw my concerns about synchronizing users between RedMine and Drupal "out the window". It really doesn't matter what the security settings are in RedMine. The RM project is written in ruby on rails and the tables are available from each installation based on the security settings at that particular database. I would guess that your freemine project is using restrictions based on the Drupal user's settings and not RedMine. To marry the two would not require a synchronized user database. The ability to see the data in the tables and to update the data in the table should be a defined code structure in PHP under Drupal based on user rights there.

First thought is that they
First thought is that they both support LDAP, Redmine natively, Drupal through a module. In that sense, they could both share the same users authentication information.

http://drupal.org/project/ldap_integration
Anything beyond that and I think you're looking at custom glue between the two apps. You might want to look over the purpose of your project again. There are a whole host of issues related to what you're suggesting, some of which I detailed here: http://www.cognitivesandbox.com/node/1097
LDAP is great
cperg
LDAP is great for those users who have an idea...
However in my case it wouldn't necessarily be the most savvy Internet users at our site. Our customers may not even have a on-staff IT personnel. Most are just sales, AR, AP and business owners, who know their own business but rarely go further than what they already know and need to run their business. I am sure the mention of LDAP and having an account somewhere of which they have no idea would make for a lot of eyes glazing over. LOL
Also it would come from their mouths "why do I have to login to your site and then login to your reporting site?" The best is seamless - anything short would be an irritant for most of my customers.
Some of "us" forget that there remains a large number of people who need ease of use, simpler explanations and systems. For those it is a requirement that they depend on "us". If they don't need "us" then what job will we do.

other CMS supports RedMine
cperg
RedMine is supported from a module in Xoops and in ImpressCMS. I have not seen the modules in action but did locate them before I stepped away from those projects. I also have not seen the code.
Another discussion I had with a developer on this subject would be to pass a URL such as [code]http://remine.corporatesite.not/reminedrupal.php?username=drupalname,pas.... The only issue I have with this method is that it would expose the password and username. Of course some encryption of the values that could be decrypted in the redminedrupal.php code. This also does require some cross maintenance of both user sets. A clever developer could perhaps do this when a user updates from Drupal.
We are also interested in the ability to closely (seamlessly) integrate RedMine to Drupal. Rights to different projects and to special areas so that a user might download newer versions of products.

Has anyone else considered
Has anyone else considered this or worked on anything to get redmine/drupal integration? this would be a great combination of tools
I'm going to work on it
Version 0.9.3 of Redmine provide a stable Rest API that really works to fetch Projects and Issues data. I'm starting to do a module to integrate them and would be great to see what people expect from such a module.
Every comment will be great ;)

There seems to be a module now, check http://drupal.org/project/redmine
It doesn't do what is
It doesn't do what is requested here, but would be useful for anyone developing integration of users.
There is time-log synchronization from Toggl to Redmine at http://drupal.org/project/togmine

Red mine drupal integration of users
We need users of drupal to be able to make a red mine ticket and to automatically shown as the ticket creator
We are having spam problems with red mine with noymous tickets
Redmine API 2.x has a
Redmine API 2.x has a function
redmine_issue_create()which will (when connected to a form) allow this. You will need a Drupal module developer to connect it to a form, but this shouldn't take more than a couple of hours.There is also http://drupal.org/project/feedmine, but it connects directly to the Redmine database (like version 1.x of Redmine API), so is not recommended.
If you pay for work on this, ideally the developer will contribute the feature as a patch to Feedmine, so that the next major version of Feedmine can use Redmine API module instead of managing it's own database connection.

Patch for feedmine
I've created this patch for connecting feedmine to redmine using REST.
