Cross project card and page linking

In Mingle 3.0 card keyword linking has been extended to support cross project card and page linking. In order to create cross project linking simply precede the card or page link with the project identifier of the project the card or page belongs to.

For example, if you have a project with the identifier "event_management_project" and you want to create a link to card 123 in the "event_management_project" project from another project, you can type

event_management_project/#123
and this will link from your current project to the "event_management_project" card number 123.

For wiki page linking just use the project identifier before the wiki page name you can type

[[event_management_project/overview_page]]
and this will link from your current project to the other project's wiki page.

You can create card and wiki page links using any of the location project's card keywords. For example, if the current project, where you are creating the card or page link, has the keywords "card" and "story" but not "bug" but the card or page you are linking to belongs to a project where "bug" is a keyword you would be able to use the "bug" keyword to link to that project's card or wiki page.

If cross project card and wiki links are created, when users who do not have permissions to view those cards or pages access them they will be prevented from viewing them.
