To GNATS developers

I am considering some of the following cha= nges to gnats.  How do I find out what is being worked on and whether = any of these changes have already been incorporated into GNATS?

1.  Change Audit-Trail field to suppo= rt a header so that the changed by and when fields do not have to repeat fo= r each change.

2.  Support for append-only field.&nb= sp; There would be a format for how the text is appended.  There would= be support for the append to be at the top or bottom of the previous text.=

3.  Command to list subfield names.&n= bsp; I did not see this anywhere.

4.  Flag to identify fields that have= subfields.  Can flags be added without breaking any existing interfac= es?

5.  Notify support for sub field when= the sub field is a multi-enum.

6.  Hooks in the create and edit to v= alidate fields
