------------------------------
I wanted to experience, first hand, how an
open-source community builds an application with the characteristics
that OOPM has. Namely: complex feature set and integration with
existing code (OOo itself). I also hope to gain insight from more
experienced coders :)
Last but not least, participating in delivering a complete, proffesional and open sourced alternative to commercial project management tools.
What do you wish for in a project management tool?
--------------------------------------------------
disclosure: I am not a project manager.
First, an application that does not focus entirely on the Gantt shart model for project management.
Second, a flexible application that can, work independently (say small personal projects), via an ad-hoc network (think peer to peer applied to project management), or via a server (think MS Project Server).
What (if any) can you contribute with?
--------------------------------------
Like someone else has said I have more experience with other languages than with C++ or Java. But, I'm pretty confident I could learn what is needed in order to debug sections of code.
Failing that, I could help with testing.
What can we (as a subproject) do to develop OOPM?
-------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure if I'm reading this correctly...
1. Decide, what the (basic) feature set will be. Don't try to "solve the world"!.
2. List all tasks and assign them. Then give me a few.
3. Promote the project.
Actually I think number 3 should be first. Perhaps we could get it mentioned in OOo's homepage. If any of you have blogs or write for magazines or newsletters then mention it!, Perhaps we could gather more people than can code and that also have some project management background that would be willing to help.
I will plug it in my blog soon...
What background do you have related to this subproject?
-------------------------------------------------------
As of now, I've only been an observer. Would love to do more as time permits.
Cheers!
