some ideas

  • add daily comments for tasks at stand-up meeting:
    • the rought project-tasks is shown as tree
    • each persons says what task(s) he has been working on yesterday and what he is going to do today
    • we either open the person's project-view page or stay with the project overview
    • team-leader adds each contribution as comment to task
      • this must be really fast
    • each team-member should give a prognose how long he estimises the task
        • estimated efforts should not be given for tasks, but for task-assignments!
  • use fckEditor to place images

html:
  • precalc the background-images for several months
  • display tasks as divs with absolute position
  • ? linkage

Implementation


I have been assigned to look at streber and see how to update it so that it feets proxistep needs. So i would like to try an implementation of gantt diagrams. I am not aware of how to do it for the moment, but i will do my best.

What do you think of the idea?

from Axelle



I think the gantt diagrams are a huge tasks because it involves a lot of additional features:
  1. Task dependencies
  2. Information weather tasks are completed parallel or not (depending on assignment to person)
  3. Information for ordering tasks in time (order_id)
    • either though ajax or though assigning date
  4. Functions to layout tasks in time
  5. Clarifying the usage for time information (see discussing tasks & time)
I would estimate that altogether it will be one or two months of work. And it will not be the easiest things to start with :)

@burger:
pixtur said that you have implemented Gantt charts in your instance. Will you share it?

about gantt charts
for the moment, i have not implemented it. But if i succeed in doing it, i will naturally share it with other streber users.

To avoid confusion. Burger implemented a lot of features, but not Gantt-charts.

OK
I think that just showing tasks in jpgraph with planned dates wouldn't be so hard to do and could add the value, especially in personview or my tasks. Unfortunately, I can't find time to start experiment...

hmm...
No, the longer I think about this topic, the more certain I am, that this features is too complex for the basic version of streber.

OK.
Is not complex for me.
At least the presentation logic is made by flex/flash.
I only added one file updateTask.php and modified the tasklist to create a XML and passedd by flashvars to gantt widget and also added the view option List|Tree|Gantt, etc.

As I said in me blog, streber got that information, the information is the same, but only represented and update in a different way.

Few people contact me asking for create a Fork of actual streber and include gantt & report support.
I don't want to move in that direction, I want to contribute to make streber great.

Lets create a poll and see what happend.

difficult choice
I work in a departement that develops designs for machinery. In our projects a Gantt chart is not that usefull, because the tasks are mostly not that related to each other.

A graphical reporting tool would very nice though.

Still I voted for implementing Gantt chart functionality and Graphical reporting tool.
Because I understand that for a lot of other situations a Gantt chart is a must have.
Implementing Gantt chart functionality will make Streber more popular and used.

Please don't create a fork. As that will divide the already limited developing resources and users.

Maybe this can be implemented as an add-on module?
Or as a feature that can be switched on or off in the config file.
