Re: [Tikiwiki-devel] Tracker creation problems (with profiles)

[Sylvie G. <sgr...@gm...>]

Marc changed some behaviors recently - so I am no more sure.
Before it was not a problem to create 2 trackers with the same name, 2
fields in a same tracker with the same name
FYI, you can also create 2 calendars with teh same name, 2 fgals with
the same names...
So this is not local to trackers
