Re: [Planner Dev] Prop. for new feat. - first patch

["C. Todd Sutherland" <support zaxiom com>]

I have been using planner for a while now tracking small projects.
Also, I have fixed a bug which existed due the usage of integer
arithmetic in resource work calculation. I submitted a patch to an
earlier planner version; however, I never receved verification that the
fix was integrated into planner.

I have been following this thread regarding non-standard work
and am interested in the new feature. I am also concerned that my fix
will not be incorporated into the non-standard work feature. 

I
have a request. Please, as developers are creating new code regarding
work calculations implement floating point arithmetic. I simply
utilized a gfloat variable rather than a gint for units and then had to
modify corresponding function calls. I also removed some of the
rounding functions.

The reason behind my request is that on small projects, the
error obtained due to rounding and truncation error is very significant
and can be costly when trying to estimate for winning projects. I need
this planner application to help me estimate for future work.

Hi guys.

I send you my first patch to your current version of planner.
I was started to work on debian sarge sources so I had work a little
to patch your current bazaar version (with little discardable modify
to compile under debian sarge in configure.in file).

This version not include our choise of toggle option in View menu
to hide/unhide new not standard work/not work days rappresentation.

Can you check it and tell me your opinion ?

If it is all ok, I proceed with the rest of modifies.

Regards, Matteo.
