LibrePlan, the popular open source project plannig application will have
email notification functionality in the upcoming 1.5 release. We are
very proud of this new and very user friendly piece of functionality and
we will let you in on this currently well guarded secret by showing you
two screenshots: The first is the page were the site administrator can
configure the settings to connect to an email server: The second is the
page where the site administrator can edit the template for the
notification: As you can see the administrator has full control over the
contents of the notification and he can use special keywords (as shown
in the right) where he wants them in the text. Of course this is all
build in our multi-language context. For every notification type the
administrator can grant a special role to individual users. This way he
has full control who receives a notification. Sending of notifications
is handled by a scheduled job so, again, the administrator can tune how
often he wants to alert his users about changes in the system.
