Detailed Description

This module processes the email notifications when the current page is changed.

It looks up the table watchlist to find out which users are watching that page.

The current implementation sends independent emails to each watching user for the following reason:

  • Each watching user will be notified about the page edit time expressed in his/her local time (UTC is shown additionally). To achieve this, we need to find the individual timeoffset of each watching user from the preferences.

Suggested improvement to slack down the number of sent emails: We could think of sending out bulk mails (bcc:user1,user2...) for all these users having the same timeoffset in their preferences.

TODO use UserOptionsLookup and other services, consider converting this to a service
