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
Will talk about licensing. Is there a definitive "Why ASL is better? Or is it just because Apache are bullies? Perhaps katello should just go MIT?
On notifications, the other thing I would like to see (ideally a shared service) is the ability to send email notificaitons out to one or more users based on events. I would assume templating, batching, and some sort of data injection. We have that on the errata side (jomara is looking at it). Perhaps we can have folks co-develop that part too.
