Please don't get me wrong: I am very grateful to Alexandre, Maurice and all others who strive to keep Planner alive and kicking, I know they are doing their best to keep up and I can only thank them for that. Problem is that IMHO Planner is a strategic app for Linux, because it's the default app for project management, which is a necessity for me and many project managers who use Linux as their desktop. I rely on it heavily to plan our sprints, and it's a pity new versions take so long to come out, and to see some basic (annoying) bugs last for too long, or some usability issues that could probably be fixed without much effort if more manpower was available. Again, this is not at all a complaint directed at the developers, but instead a "Phew! Maybe now these guys will get some help" ;-) It's nice to see RedHat (or anyone else for that matter) offering a hand, I hope it is welcome by the developers. Regards, Andre
