Hi folks,
I've been dwelling on user notifications a bit more. #3623 implies this functionality, and there are some comments visible here: https://www.aeolusproject.org/redmine/issues/3623
We have some licensing difference between our projects (grr!),
Not sure if this is a conversation for this mailing list, but was there a conversation about licensing of projects and if we could all use the same license?

Yeah this is actually a good thing to bring up.
Aeolus moved to the Apache license from GPL v2+about 18 months ago for various reasons -- Deltacloud is an Apache project, ASL seems more familiar/comfortable to the Ruby world, etc.
If Katello upstream and associated projects are interested, I think it would be beneficial to have everyone on the Apache license (and obviously also make code sharing a bit simpler). Given that we can always ask Katello to dual-license code we want to share between projects, it's not that big of a deal either way.
Take care, --Hugh
but it might make sense to see about borrowing the Katello implementation rather than reinventing this from the ground up. They already support persistent notifications which can be sent to multiple users, though we'd have to add email notifications and perhaps notification preferences. I added a couple of screenshots as well.
Let me know what you think -- does this seem like a good approach for us to follow?
