David,

I'll plan for a Screen to show list of Tasks in Project. I think we can add
a flag to filter out tasks that have been assigned to some Iteration.

For Tasks and Sub Projects association with Project in AssociationType of
WORK_EFF_BREAKDOWN. Should be use some different kind of association between
Tasks and Phase (Iteration) So its easy to filter out during reports and
different user tools.

Regards
Anil

My preference for flexibility is that we just use phase for both, and then
people can interpret it based on the structure.

For both higher level phases and iterations the general process for
managing them will be similar. A classic agile/XP style iteration is just a
shorter time period like two weeks as compared to a project phase which may
be a few months.

For either one part of setting them up is deciding which tasks from the
project in general should go into them, which is why we want a screen that
shows a list of all project tasks sorted by priority to make it easy to pick
the top few and assign them to a phase (big or small).

These terms don't really mean anything when applied to a single
WorkEffort, but as you mention only when describing one WorkEffort relative
to another WorkEffort. In other words, we would never have a WorkEffortType
of "Sub Project" or "Sub Task", these are just WorkEfforts of type Project
or Task that are children of another Project or Task.
