Hi, Sorry for the delay, I'm a bit backloged at the moment.

Nobody is forced to send mail via the tracker. That was my concern, and that's why I asked for standard _notification_ as well (I didn't want to keep the old pending projects page, for example). Well, if it is possible to easily or automatically convert the tracker notification to something looking like the old notification I guess there is no problem. > 2.

It is perfectly comparable. I do think answering approvals requires a somewhat more complex text editing, but anyway, the mail interface would be good indeed. Since you are talking about duplicating features, I wonder: why you put so much time into the tracker, while we could try to make tight bindings with an existing tracker, that among others already have the mail interface feature? Is there a specific reason for this? -- Sylvain PS: we never received your reply at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Any clue? _______________________________________________ Savane-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/savane-dev
