Description Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-12-12 20:56:51 EST
If values are not set for certain attributes, e.g. due dates, the JIRA editor does not display these attributes at all. The model should distinguish between non-existing attributes and empty values.
Comment 1 Steffen Pingel CLA 2008-10-05 01:06:21 EDT
Added check if due date is available.
Comment 2 Jörg Thönnes CLA 2008-10-29 08:23:57 EDT
Is this also related to this behaviour:

 1. Open ticket.
 2. Do not update attributes. The Mylyn connector does not know the Fix Version of the opened ticket.
 3. Change ticket status to assigned.
 4. Commit change
 5. As an unexpected side effect, the Fix Version has been cleared during the commit.

This is dangerous since the ticket disappeared from its scheduled release in this way. Mylyn should not change
attributes not _explicitely_ changed by the user.
