JTrac experience + development changes

I've been using JTrack on a large project. After 3 weeks, we have now logged over a 1000 issues. I've also added some changes after some suggestions from users to further improve JTrack. I've added the following changes:

1. added the possibility for issue owners to "edit" their issue, using the same functionality as available for admin users. The owner is defined as the user who has raised the issue. This helped correct omissions when entering issues.
2. increased area of custom "free text" fields to 3 lines and equivalent length as the Remarks field. We have several text fields that contain pieces of text which was very akward to use with small default fields.
3. populated custom fields with their current values when viewing issues (users were actually overwriting field values because they thought values would be appended rather than replaced)
4. added search capability on Last Changed date (from History table) and show field in Search results.
5. added search capability on Related Items and show field in Search results.

 
I also had to change some "development issues", mainly based on some great tips using the forums and maillists:

• changed the pom.xml so it could find all libraries
• added some missing labels in the Dutch translations, which caused the Excel import to crash

 
If anyone is interested in these changes, please leet me know. If some of these changes could in integrated into JTrack 2.2, that would be great.
 
Cheers,
Rob Swinkels

Rob would it be possible to upload a patch on sourceforge?
