Hello everybody,

First of all sorry for sending a blank message earlier, it happened  
accidentally.

We have been trying to implement the audit trailing mechanism in  
Hermes and there were suggestions from the list about developing a  
common audit trail component for Horde using RDO. But it seems that it  
may take more time to develop such a component for all the Horde  
applications and the need of the audit trail feature in Hermes is very  
urgent for us. So for the time being we would like to drop the idea of  
a common component for Horde and like to implement a mechanism for  
hermes alone. The basic idea is to add a new database table which  
resembles the current hermes_timeslice table and then move the  
pristine information to the new table(hermes_timeslice_auditlog). This  
way the original table will have only the current information and the  
data model will not be affected. Please rememeber that this audit is  
only of the timeslices. Does this makes sense?

Once this feature is implemented we would like to implement timesheet  
approval, hierarchical organization roles and leave request processing.
