Hey Curtis, The work you've done on improving series & milestones has been excellent. I've certainly noticed them being easier to use. Please don't feel uncharitably toward Monty. I made a quick note based on an off-hand comment and forwarded them to the list so I could delete an icon from my desktop. > I image his concern is: > > 174468 Series, releases, and milestones overlap confusingly > https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/174468 > > 418529 Create a milestone is more common than register a series > https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/418529 > I won't speak for Monty, but from talking to other users, I get the impression that they simply aren't clear what series in particular are modeling. A release makes sense, a milestone makes sense, but most people don't understand what series "gets" them. Maybe it's worth looking at the docs we already have for this. > There is also the issue that we are not showing the bug/blueprint > summaries on series pages, making it very difficult to see milestone > capacity and team velocity--I do not know how to fix this other than > send an entire release moving that into an ajax request > It's a performance issue? jml _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
