[support] Assigning project issues

[Metzler, David]

4.7 was the last time I used it. 

There are some key features that pushed me that way
 * Ability to invent my own case states. 
 * Abiltiy to assign work to others.
 * Really intuitive filtering logic. 

Using RTE's like tinymce would break the project every time it was
edited because of the mixing of the need for body fields and state
fields etc. 

I have a lot of respect for Derek and the maintainers of Project, but
when I asked them on the issue queue they suggested that they didn't
really expect it to be used outside of drupal, that's when I found
casetracker.  It's alos a pretty sweet module with views integration
etc. 

My 2 cents.

When was the last time you used Project module?  I use it currently
and don't notice either of these issues.  I used it under Drupal4.6
and it didn't have the problems then, even, but it wasn't as nice then
as it is now, of course.  I suggest you re-evaluate it because it no
longer has either of those problems (being overly tied to cvs nor
overly tied to drupal.org).

It doesn't have the ability to assign issues to another person though
there are patches in the queue to allow this which need reviews and
help.

Regards,
Greg
