Roadmap improved

April 02nd, 2008 | Category: Coding | Author: elan

We’ve restructured the milestones on our Trac site to correspond to specific versions and better illustrate the bugs and features that will make it into these versions. A few things to note about this:

  • When you’re reporting a bug or requesting a feature, please leave the milestone blank! Please do indicate the version for bug reports.
  • We’ll decide which milestone (if any) will include the bug-fix/feature based upon a few things: the number of comments the ticket receives, how difficult it is to implement/fix, and how important it is to our core user group, comprised primarily of our wives and Barkley. (Hence, anything requiring opposable thumbs is out.)

Remember, the more detailed the bug report, the more likely it is that (a) we’ll look at it and (b) we’ll be able to fix it.

Thanks!

    @Elan, maybe you ought to think of using our wiki more as well?:

    @Gamester17: Actually, I find Trac to be a much better way to track features, progress and bug reports than a wiki. The wiki is just too freeform, and, in my opinion, doesn’t work as well for project management.

    @Elan, we also have task-manager on SourceForge which is similar to trac:
    https://sourceforge.net/pm/reporting/?group_id=87054

    and trackers as well, and we can create as many new trackers or subcatagories as we like there:

    @Gamester17: Sorry, I have no interest in moving away from Trac, I find the SF tools subpar.
