New document notification

[eltonteb]

In GoogleDocs, when sharing a doc it's possible to have a notification sent (by email) to the people with whom you want to share the document. Could that be possible in Recogito, so that I get notified (for e.g.) if / when someone shares a document with me?

That would be a great addition. If someone wants to pick this up:

• The action that's called when a new collaborator is added is here. I.e. that's the part where the email would need to be triggered
• As for sending the email itself, I guess this should become a separate "notification service" (or something) in the services package
• For a sample of how the nuts and bolts of email sending work in the Play Framework, check this example, which handles sending of password reset emails.
