Hi guys, Let's define a roadmap for planner and make more concrete plans for coming releases. The way I see it we need at least a 0.14.3 release containing all small stuff we can fix/implement within limited time and then a later version (0.15?) containing more intrusive changes/major features. 0.14.3 ------ The only thing I still want to fix for 0.14.3 is: * bug #439180 - default to long names in HTML gantt (I have a patch ready, different from the one attached to the bug, just gotta check it in) Feel free to suggest other bugs for which the fix is either known or easy to determine, and not much work. I'm not sure if I want to include a fix for the following problem in 0.14.3: * bug #382548 - undo crash It looks like it will require a rewrite of the dependency graph code in mrp-task-manager.c. See this thread for details: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/planner-dev-list/2008-January/msg00000.html If this rewrite proves to be too complicated, it will be postponed to the later version. later version ------------- * Resource leveling. Kurt, can a simple version of this be included in 0.14.3 or is it too much effort for the short term? Do you think resource leveling (incl future versions) would require any file format changes? * One feature I would like to include is the option of tracking progress in hours instead of a percentage. That could use a change in the file format, but if needed I can implement it first with the old format. The effect of that will be that sometimes when you read back a file, the progress in hours has changed a bit since the last save. * Printing support needs to be rewritten to use the GTK+ printing API instead of libgnomeprint. This will fix several bugs at once. * I would really like our tables to be more easily editable, with navigation and editing similar to spreadsheets. It looks like a non-trivial task for someone who knows as little about GTK as I do. * We should make building Planner on Windows with up-to-date libraries easier. It would be nice to get a list of things that require file format changes, so we can select a subset to implement and release them together in order to minimize the number of different file formats. Once again, if there are any bugs you think should go into 0.14.3, now would be the time to bring them to our attention.
