hi >Who should I talk to about modifying the ToDos page?
The to-dos was put together by Erwin and a lot of the tech leads. I think they would be delighted if anyone improved the page. :-) >It's very hard to use. The first thing we should do is divided into >separate pages and split them according to some reasonable critera. >For example: > > * Difficulty level. > * Skills required. > * Component involved. > >In an ideal world we'd be able to use server-side scripting for this. >Project leads could create a page for each task and add keywords. A >web form could ask the user to choose among the 3 citeria above. Then >produce a page containing all the tasks that fit those keywords. This woudl be interesting... but who defines the difficulty? that's been our problem before. >I have another idea. Maybe this will be more doable: > >All the tasks are placed in the same HTML page, but at the top of the >page there is a web form, like so: > > * Difficulty: [ Any | High | Medium | Low ] > * Commitment: [ Any | High | Medium | Low ] > * Skill required: [ Any | C++/C | Java | ... ] > * Time needed: [ Any | 1 week | 1 month | ... ] > * Component: [ Any | Writer | Calc | ... ] > >As the user selects items from here, a Javascript program removes the >entries that no longer fit the selection criteria. Interesting.... Right now, each todo is associated with a proejct. Is that part of the problem? That people may not know how to evaluate projects, or what they mean? If so, might it make sense to group them according to technology or area of focus? Then, would it make sense within each area of focus to have to-dos, perhaps as you suggest, but perhaps also linked to issue reports? (this last bit may really complicate things) best Louis --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
