True, the initial tool does not have deadlines. However, all of the implementations I checked out do support deadlines and usually do something like highlight overdue taska in red, as Jonathan pointed out. > A Gantt chart is certainly a better fit for the kind of project tracking > involved in preparing a conference.

Also, Jonathan and others have pulled me back to reality by questioning whether we really have that many dependencies. For if it's only a handful, I am sure we can enforce them manually. I've thus made a start at trying to create a comprehensive list of all tasks that need doing for a given DebConf instance over at https://titanpad.com/dc-tasks-list and invite you all to see what you can contribute. Once we have a sizeable dataset, we could try to create a Kanban (with deadlines) and see how usable it'd be. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@debconf.org> @martinkrafft : :' : DebConf orga team `. `'` `- DebConf16: Cape Town: https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf16 DebConf17 in your country? https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf17
