Hi all, I just modified the wiki page and replaced the absolute links ( http://hub.qgis.org/issues/issue_number ) by redmine syntax for links to issues ( #issue_number ).
This way we will be able to see wich issues are closed. Michael 2012/8/16 Etienne Tourigny <etourigny....@gmail.com> > Hi Martin, Arun and others > > I think this is great!
