It would be really useful, if inheritance of categories could be disabled. As an alternative the "namespace" of the category should be displayed (eg. "subproject1.categoryname")

So. Now that I (rather inadvertently) clicked on the "Sponsor"-Button, I owe the Project $10. As I consider this bug an important matter, I'm perfectly willing to pay my debt. But how ? Paypal ? Credid Card ? Actually I don't really understand the whole Sponsorship bussiness ...

I hope there will be a flag added to disable the inheritance of categories, because the autoassignment of bugs does not work properly with it.

I modified print_api.php in the installation in my company to disable the inheritance of categories.

My temporary solution is:

diff print_api.php print_api_new.php

-- just a reminder on this bug --

maybe an option in the config_inc.php can control the where in the query

This is not true in 1.2

When creating subprojects there is a checkbox "Inherit Parent Categories"
