20140236649 | Method and Apparatus for Performing Remote Operations in an Issue Tracking Environment - Issues are linked to items that are external to the system installation to connect people, teams, and applications, in which users can share issues and search results with each other. Remote issue links connect issue tracking system issues to objects and pages in other instances, such as Web applications. Activity streams show events from all linked applications and third-party applications. In another embodiment, a user is allowed to copy issues from one issue tracking system instance to another. Once an application link is established between the local issue tracking system instance and another, a new issue action, remote copy, appears in a view issue page. The user is prompted to map field values by field names for the issue tracking system's built-in fields and/or to configure default values for required fields. In some embodiments, appropriate permissions are required to set the field value on the target site. | 08-21-2014 |

20080301242 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROTECTING CHAT CONTENT - Provided is a method for ensuring the privacy of communication during a computer chat session. The claimed subject matter enables each participant of a chat session to choose whether or not to allow other participants to save, print or archive the text of the session. At the beginning of or during a chat session, a particular participant decides that the chat session should be private. The participant transmits a message indicating the desire to make the chat session private. Each participant receives a pop-up message that communicates the privacy request and is provided the option of accepting or declining the request. If a sufficient number of participants accept the request, programming logic that blocks any attempt to save the chat content to memory is executed with respect to the chat session. Different chat sessions may be configured with different options such as, but not limited to, inclusive and non-inclusive. | 12-04-2008 |
