[Koha-devel] Automatic renewal feature

[Fischer, Katrin]

Hi, 

normally you can assign the bug to yourself if the status is still NEW and not ASSIGNED, but we are a bit lax with setting the correct status sometimes, so leaving a note on the bug that you plan to work on something is probably good. 

I filed bug 7413 ages ago and it would be nice to see it resolved. My guess is that Kyle is/was the default assignee for Circulation module bugs and that's why he is named as assignee.
