Personalizing the issue list


Having your issues organized is extremely important for good performance. So, that's when custom queries come in handy again.

Custom queries were described in detail in Chapter 4, Issue Tracking. Some samples of them can be found in the Project maintenance best practices section of Chapter 5, Managing Projects. This is the time to mention them again, what proves how useful they are.
