Hi Tracks fans, I was doing a review of my projects in Tracks (using the trunk version) and found myself dissatisfied with the experience. A few thoughts:
1) Some projects have no remaining next actions, and there is nothing more to do, but I didn't complete them. They're no longer applicable for one reason or another. Do I mark it Completed? Hidden? Do I delete it? Or is there a new state necessary - "dead" or "canceled"? 2) It seems to me that only "Active" projects should appear in the Autocomplete box in the new action form. Any objections? 3) On the project listing page, my list is getting too long to be useful. Perhaps we need to divide it into separate lists, by state? 4) Does ordering projects make sense? I find myself just trying to keep projects listed roughly alphabetically (but am never up to date). Do you use that feature? 5) Because we use the project name to create a URL, you can't create a project with the same name as a previously completed one. This is problematic for certain projects. For example, I have a project "Upgrade my blogging software", which I already completed but now need to do again. 6) Ticket #379 [1] on the Trac suggests next/previous links when viewing individual projects and contexts. I like this idea a lot, but I think I only want it to include Active projects or contexts. Looking forward to your thoughts on these topics or other related to managing and interacting with projects in Tracks.
