Heh, no worries -- nobody is getting paid to work on this full time. :)

I think to really do this we'd need to have most of the configuration information in the database.  That's been on my mind for a while, so maybe it's time to plan it.

This is exciting to me, for when people _really_ start using it, good feeback comes... like below. :)

This is a great idea.  We could also copy the 'bugs assigned to me' and 'bugs reported by me' links up to the main part of the home page.  Let's try to make a list of all the 'quick list' queries we would want on the home page.

Yeah, I've been meaning to CSS everything, which would make this a lot easier.  Did you try creating a td class in global.css for the text?

Hmm... I guess we could just add colors to priority like we did for severity and then have an option for it in the config.

Yeah, this never got updated when we added the login.  I'll have to add that.

Cool, thanks.
