FogBugz is great bug tracking and project management software. But it is not free and non-open source. Is there a good enough, open-source and free application, which can be used as replacement to FogBugz?

Actually, I like EBS (Evidence-based Scheduling) feature in FogBugz. Are there good trackers with this feature?

    if you purchase the licensed version of FogBugz, it comes with the source. Also, it is free for students and startups. – Michael Pryor Jan 26 '11 at 00:46

There is Bugzilla, which is an open source issue tracking system.

Here is a more extensive list

While there are plenty of decent open source bug trackers such as Bugzilla (as Navi mentioned) and Mantis Bug Tracker, I haven't found many which also include solid project management features like FogBugz and other licensed software.

I suppose that it also depends on what kind of project you are tracking. If it's something which doesn't require much more security than a username/password, you might find a good number of web services which can host your needs; however, if you work for a company/industry which requires more discretion (say- government?), then you most likely won't be able to take advantage of the greater web community for these needs.
