In our company, the sensor is installed for them, along with a lot of other Eclipse plugins, so another step is understandable. http://timshadel.com/blog/2004/08/28/1093715447000.html Getting them to accept all 12 project invitations, though, has been a challenge for us, though. Perhaps a property of "Auto accept all project invitations" would be helpful... Both of these privacy features make consistency difficult, but it's hard to make sure that everyone would feel comfortable having their email address on a chart where management can see without some kind of control. Though, if they can't get around to using it on the projects, then the privacy issue doesn't arise. I dunno.
