project management always of interest here.
I have a home grown one in the works in PMwiki
...
GTD has a number of "gaps" for our needs
-- collaborative environment; there are no options for assigning to
team players
-- TO DO actions are more ephmeral for us while
-- documentation and reference pages are the primary "objects" in the
system...
-- Calendars are not that important, I just need a linear road map and
to know
that it's moving forward or not... very little is tied to actual dates.
-- and TO DO systems that force you to open a dialog and enter three
fields and click
several pull down menus and then submit, just to create check list
have always pushed my efficiency buttons =
"drives me nuts... why don't you just make a list!"
but I *do* like a couple of conceptual things GTD has working for it...
It would be
great to be able to add, to any given PMWiki page
Next Action --to move this project forward... but it is attached to
page, not a project as such
and these could be aggregated visually in a page list...)
Waiting On -- a frequent "pause" in a project requiring everyone to
"halt" but you often don't know
"what's happening, why are we all waiting...but my PM wiki skills-php
skills are not there... to
implement such "add on" to any given page...
Ideas?
Om shanti
