Hi there!
eis.services.openoffice.org has got a new feature which improves ChildWorkspace-handling between developers and QA. Developers often have some problems finding QA members who would want to do QA for their new Childworkspaces. Therefore the "QA Representative" field of the Childworkspace data can now be left empty as long as the Childworkspace is in status "planned" or "new". The QA can than use the new Menu Entry "ChildWorkspaces / SeekQA" to get a list of all those Childworkspaces which have an owner but no QA representative yet. The list shown displays the Childworkspace name, the Owner ( with a mailto: link) and the description of the Childworkspace. When you click on the name more information on the Childworkspace can be retrieved. When you click on the owner name your mailer should open to send a mail to the Childworkspace owner. A QA member would use this to express willingness of doing QA for the Childworkspace to the owner. After the owner receives such a mail he/she would decide to accept one as QA representative and add the corresponding email address as QA representative for the Childworkspace.
Additionally some more requirements have been dropped for Childworkspace data when the CWS is in status "new" or "planned". Only the "Level of impact" field is required in this state, everything else is optional but must be set if the CWS is set to state "ready for QA". If even in doubt about how to set the "Level of impact field" you can set it to "Implementation only" first and eventually change it later.
