It would be nice to be able to select the "default" notifiers in the project add/edit page. That way the people selected are automatically selected when a new issue is created. The user can always change it on a per issue basis as they do now, it just preselects.
Along the same lines, the list of notifiers in this project window and the existing task mechanism should only show people with read rights to the project the task is assigned to.
I would think the defaults are only populated on task creation. After that, it is as set by the issue editing process. I can remove them all or add, etc. I guess you could do what I'm requesting and also have an ALWAYS notify option that gets notified no matter what. That's less important to me, but could be useful.
Any chance on the filtered notification list to match the people that have project access being implemented? My list of potential notified people is getting long and I've got people asking "who's this person?"
I created a new issue on the default project that came up in the drop down (in other words I didn't change the project drop down). The Notification and the Assign to fileds showed me 4 users (all supposed to be on the list), but there are more. If I change the project dropdown to another project, those other areas update, if I change back to the original project I see the proper list of users (more then the original 4). FYI.
Hmm, I'll have a look tomorrow. My testing was showed the correct users in all cases, so it's something you're doing differently. Maybe the other users only have read access?
I commit my changes to Darcs as soon as I believe they work, then keep updating that until I'm convinced they work, then deploy it to the live server. And if there's a problem, I immediately commit my fixes to Darcs again, and the server as soon as possible.
The source repository might get a few commits which are experimental from time to time, and those aren't deployed on the server until they're complete. And it'll get commits on new features (which might be hidden from the interface) as soon as I have something written, weather it works or not.
