Summary:  Incomplete userlist

Original Submission:  I experience strange behaviour in my savannah 
installation (o.k. not yet savane)
Users do not appear in a project, if table_user contains the entry "NULL" for 
admin flags. If I set it to "" it works fine.
However, Mathieu had set it from "" to "NULL" and I'd like to understand why or 
change it back.

Hello Marcus,

Would consider switching to Savane? While nothing in the code should creates 
any troubles to you, it is way easier to track down bugs of specific versions.

I made change from "" to NULL because NULL means NULL for mysql while "" means 
empty. Savane usually defines whether it should use user specific settings, 
group setting, or group type setting, or site wide setting, depending on the 
content of the fields. If a configuration field is NULL, it looks to the upper 
level of configuration (group, group type...).

I changed that to NULL because using empty string can create many issues, 
especially because both Perl and PHP are used by Savane and because they do not 
necessarily interpret the empty string in the same way. So when it must be 
NULL, NULL it is.

If it creates troubles, it is a bug. As this bug does not seems to occur on 
other installation, it may well be due to an outdated file residing on yours. 

Considering that many bugs have been fixed since Savannah got renamed Savane, I 
think you should really move to Savane.

Best Regards,
