How about five?

- Painless upgrades
- Seamless mail gateway
- Reliable search
- Bulk operations on issues
- Doesn't send an endless stream of tracebacks via email

Though if it really does get upgrades right, that in itself may be
enough to switch. As an admin, the last thing I want is a package that
thinks it's so much more important than every other package that it
deserves manual attention at upgrade time. Roundup and Moin are serial
offenders.
