This sounds like planning activity. Gnome has an app called planner ;-) Would it make sense to discuss a way to put these rc- and other related goals on a gantt chart? Maybe even automate import from mailing list emails marked with e.g. [release-planning] in the subject and one delimited markup region like --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- planner-importable xml here --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Discussion without triggering automated import would just leave "[release-plannng]" out of the Subject: line, or have e.g. [release-discussion] in the Subject: line. Anyway, I thought a nice gantt chart .svg or .png or .pdf might be nice :) Thoughts? -- Regards, Bengt Richter
