I agree. One way to approach this is to do an overall timeline-like or wall-like view, so that projects that do a lot of merge proposals or reviews or bugs show up that way. Similarly for people. It may provide a good "stuff is happening" view. However the way this is done in Trac or Redmine or github does have some risk that you see "stuff is happening" but you're not so much invited to interact in a way that's meaningful to you. For someone new to the project it's good to know there's lots of code activity, but they probably actually want to get a download or report a bug ... or see some screenshots or documentation or ... So I think we want a unified timeline plus other stuff. But probably not for 3.0. -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
