To-Do

We should strongly consider using the SourceForge task tracker to manage our To Do items since it is specifically designed for this and allows for sorting, assignments, etc. What makes more sense for the Wiki is the WishList where people can toss out ideas without formalities.

If the SourceForge task tracker is so great, why hasn't it been used for Webware since 2000? I'd argue there are big advantages to doing it here:

• ability to cross-reference other Topics/Discussions in the Wiki

• faster and more flexible to edit

• allows open discussion of the items in the list

• allows fast grouping / reorganization of items

• can use TWIKI's TOC feature

What we need is a good layout for this list.

The SF tracker hasn't been used due to laziness. Editing a text file on my local drive is easier than just about anything.

There are advantages to tracker, like the ability to query for open bugs, sort by date, sort by priority, etc. I believe the discussion can be open for tracker items. eg, you can add running comments. Also, I think the tracker can e-mail the assigned party and the reporter as updates are made.

Basically, it's the classic set of pros and cons you always have between a Wiki and a structured web app.

These are the improvements and additional features that we plan to add to Webware at some stage in the future.
