Hi all, I am totally in agreement that the addition of support for groups would be very useful. This will allow admins to associate access rights to groups, then manage memberships to such groups. Will also allow assigning an issue to a group, or the default handled of a category to a group. If we write a wiki page on this, review, and implement it, then I will be happy to integrate it into Mantis core. However, I am not as convinced that assigning an issue to multiple users/groups adds value. In my mind, if an issue is to be assigned to multiple users, then there is no accountability. In such case, we should create child issues with the appropriate scopes and assign them to the right resources. A general note,a big patch with multiple features is less likely to get integrated compared to smaller ones with separate features. So as much as you can submit the features separately to the bug tracker. Checkout the following link for more details: http://www.mantisbt.org/wiki/doku.php/mantisbt:howto_submit_patches Thanks in advance for your contribution.
