Actually, a better way to do this would be to extend the set of metadata
fields in the responsible file with an additional datapoint...call it
the 'allowed-to-close' field. So your responsible file would look
something like:
gnats-admin:GNATS administrator:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:N
foo:Foo User:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:N
bar:Bar User:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:Y
baz:Baz User:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:N
etc.
You'll need to tweak your dbconfig file and update the definition of
the 'Responsible' field along these lines too.
Once you've done this, you can use the following type of on-change
clause:
on-change "(oldpr:state[type]==\"open\") &\
(state[type]==\"closed\") &\
(responsible[allowed-to-close]==\"N\")" {
set-field "State" { "%s" "$OldValue" }
}
Note that I haven't tested this, but it ought to work.
Let me know if you have trouble with it.
