Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Call for Volunteers: Redesign OpenACS.org inside and out

Wouldn't the project manager be of help to get things structured? after all this seems to be a project. Added bonus could be we discover usefull tidbids that could add value to the package in the process, like things you can't do with it right now. 😉 I think this reconciles Nick's approach and the earlier comment we underuse the toolkit's features to make the OACS statement.

The features in project manager also help to organise the commercial aspects of the workerbee idea (timesheets etc). Maybe in an ideal world it would make sense to combine bugtracker and projectmanager, in the same way logger integration is created or as optional plug-in.

This may create duplicate functionality, in that case it would be an interesting excersise to trim down the code. From personal experience I can can tell there are more candidates for such an approach, Eventmanager and Room reservations spring to mind. Both packages would benefit from the same plug in approach.

Just a thought
