Thread: [GSoC 2021] Trouble understanding issue
Greetings,
I was going through issue-53 of the pgeu-system for the project Improve pgeu-system for conference management. The issue requires a feature to enable sending emails with HTML, but while skimming through the source code, I found these lines and the feature seems to be already implemented here. I am not quite sure about what is expected here.

It uses a template to render it, but it renders text->text only, and just uses the templating to substitute variables in the text. (It uses the django template system as a preparation to make it easier to do html email in the future, but it has no such thing now) -- Magnus Hagander Me: https://www.hagander.net/ Work: https://www.redpill-linpro.com/
Thank you for the clarification.
