Hi list,
in the developer meeting today the question came up why the Episode UI
[1] is not activated by default. Several people have not noticed this
feature yet because of this.
There was some discussion on this UI when it was created and there was
not been a concensus on this UI. So the solution to this was to
deactivate by default. There were some
But the Episode service is one of the main enhancements in 1.3 and
anyone in the dev meeting today felt sorry that most users cannot use it
because of the hidden UI.
There is already a proposal on how to combine the workflow and the
episode service in the UI [2], but implementing this is out of focus for
1.3 and maybe even for 1.4 as no one has himself commited to this
feature yet.
So the proposal is to active the "episode" UI despite all concerns, with
no or only minor changes (changing the name of the tab i.e.). We want to
avoid a long discussion that may delay the release, as we hope that the
release is only one release blocker away... so let us keep the
discussion short and give your +1 or -1.
Thanks
Rüdiger
