Re: [gnome-love] Project management software for Gnome projects



Thanks for the reply!

I will continue writing code and developing the project. And when I'm
done, nobody will need any of those non-free project/task/todo
management tools.

I'm writing it in C++ using gtkmm for GUI.

Currently its functionality is more or less what GTG offers, but with
the advantage of fast graph algorithms (because I write in C++ compared
to Python) and very high level of modularity and maintainability (all
components are built on top of each other, so each one is a separate
useful piece of code).

I want to add Semantic Desktop support, but I'm not sure Gnome already
has a plan for a desktop-wide semantic database and
communication/integration. Many separate tools and projects exist, but
there's a lot of work to do. Maybe I should help there...

Thanks again :)

        Hi,
        
        I've been working for the past few months on a task management
        application which makes it very easy and effective to use GTD,
        delegate
        tasks to other team members, watch the team's work progress,
        etc. Before
        Before I started it, I made a research. I couldn't find a
        free-software
        application which did everything I needed for my personal
        usage
        patterns, so I just started writing my own app.
        


This is really great!  Out of curiosity what are you writing it in? 


        
        So I realized how close it is, and how simple. So before I
        dive further
        into my project, I'd like to as you a question:
        
        Task management and sharing, collaborative decision making and
        many
        other relates tools can be extremely useful for a large
        organization.
        Including the Gnome project. Does the Gnome project already
        use this
        kind of tools? I've seen Gnome Live, the wiki pages,
        discussions,
        brainstorming, roadmaps, etc. but there's a new, higher level
        of
        software aided task and project management. Does the Gnome
        project have
        an interest to use such technologies?
        


I am not aware of anyone using these kind of tools.  The marketing
team is the one that's been driving requests for more collaborative
tools especially from Andrea.  We do have some need to do some project
management.  I'm sure it would come in handy for those who run GUADEC
as well.


I don't know from a technical stand point what people use or if they
do any planning.  But the non-coding folks would certainly see some
benefit.
 
        If it does use them, I'd like to see. I don't want to
        re-invent the
        wheel (non-free existing tools don't count). If it doesn't
        need any such
        tools, I'd like to hear why. And if you are interested in such
        tools,
        I'd like to know. And especially hear about use-cases, feature
        ideas,
        etc.
        


I would encourage you to write it.  I for one would use it, both
personally and professionally.  Apps like yours would be a boon for
adoption in corporate offices.


I've actually wanted to write something to track the accomplishments
of people who work for me so that end the year I would have a nice
list of accomplishments.  Something to think about as well. :-)
