Re: GnatsWeb....

[James Eric Lawson]

The fiend priority...fixed-in-version (hyphens)?  I don't know about
changing the built-in fields, though; I have only changed non-built-ins.
To change those, 5 lines of the dbconfig file needed to be edited
("Notify-List" to "cc" -- don't ask).

If possible despite whatever resistance you're encountering, you might
want to default the priority field and add a field, or change an unused,
non-built-in.
