tutos-devel Mailing List for TUTOS

NB: Reposting from Open Discusion Forum. Hope you dont mind?

Currently TUTOS defines a product as a kind of project, but a product(work-
product) should really be defined as the output or result of a project or
task.

Proposal:
1.The product business object should be re-designed so that every project
or task must have at least one (work-)product as its output i.e. every
Project or Task should have a deliverable. This makes it easier to
understand when a task is complete. Additional work-products can be added
over the duration of a project or task e.g. bugs found or fixed.
2.Only products can have a version tag.
3.Only Projects and Parent Tasks can have milestones.
4.Only Products can have installations.

Any comments?

NB: Reposting this from Open Discussion Forum, I dont think anybody's
there. Hope thats okay?

I would like to propose an improve to the Project and Task Business Objects
and would like some feedback.

Problem:
Currently the start and end times for Project/Task Business Objects are
defined statically, regardless of whether it has child projects or tasks.
Currently it is legal for a child task or project to take longer than the
containing project/task!

Proposed Solution:
1. Start and End times associated with a Project can only be derived from
its child projects or tasks).
2. A task that has child tasks must derive its Start and End times from its
children.

Any comments?

Hi Folks,

Some info for all of you who work with the latest CVS stuff.

Today I have created a new Branch BRANCH-1-2 in CVS

Working/Using this branch you will see how TUTOS 1.2 will get "more" stable.

If you change nothing you will stay on the cutting edge of development 
which probably will get less stable within the next weeks. Ideas for new 
modules are welcome in the new develpment cycle.




BTW: For TUTOS 1.2 I still wait for more feedback. If there are no more 
bugreports I will make a 1.2 final in 3 weeks after my vacation.




have fun

Hi list,

I plan to make the classic templates set based on css positionning, in
order to better handle menu elements. So it won't be no more a kind of
copy of what TUTOS looks like in branch 1.

As I don't think you can call a web browser a software not abble to
respect W3C standards as html, xhtml and css, I won't care about
browser compatibility, but only about standard conformance.

In other words, prepare yourself to writte a new template set if you
plan to run TUTOS 2 in IE (for example).

I think I'll soon be ready to show a consistent part of tutos using templates, 
that is a limited subset of tutos with products, tasks and bugs management.

Gero, I'd like to put a demo on the www.tutos.org web site, could you handle 
that or tell me how to do it?

Regards,

Hello all

Firstly I hope that I have chosen the correct list to join, although I 
am sure someone will let me know if I am posting to the wrong place.

My name is Rick Timmis, I am the director of a small Linux / Open Source 
solutions provider ST Technology

http://www.sttechnology.co.uk

We provide services to business in the south west of the UK and have 
been established a little over a year now. We use Tutos for our CRM and 
Group planning requirements and use practically every aspect of the 
applications features.

We have now included Tutos in our portfolio of products that we can 
provide, over the coming weeks we will be putting together some 
marketing material to generate more interest in your product.

In addition we will be rolling out our second deployment of 1.1 into a 
commercial environment, along with this role out we will be providing a 
2 day training course with presentation slides and short form 
documentation, which I will be preparing next week. Once complete and 
implemented I shall release this back to the group.

As mentioned above we will be preparing some marketing literature in the 
form of PDF's which once again we will release back to the group.

I have just downloaded 1.2 beta and have begun doing some testing on 
this, I will make notes of problems or ideas as I come across them and 
submit this report back to the group in the near future.

So far I have found the new features very encouraging and find that the 
user experience has been much improved. appreciation is in order for 
what has so far proved to be a robust and feature rich solution

Many Thanks

Rick Timmis
