1667,Create a desktop app to record time spend on a given task and update ticket when done,coling,coling,This plugin would be make a lot more useful by creating a desktop application (python-gtk? or for OSX or it's clone Vista_ as a Widget or Gadget).\r\n\r\nThis would simply allow starting and stopping work on a given task and the time spend therein recorded locally. Little warnings would flash up periodically (e.g. every 15 minutes - configurable) to remind the user they are still working on this ticket - I get easily distracted ;)\r\n\r\nOnce the user clicks "stop"_ they will be asked if they want to submit now_ and if so they have to enter in a brief description of what they have done. If they choose not to_ the time will be cached locally until a later date.\r\n\r\nThis will make use of the XMLRPC interface and as such may need changes to the plugin itself (I am unsure of the technical details here).\r\n\r\nI will start work on this in the near(ish) future as I think this kind of recording app would be of great benefit in our company.\r\n\r\nMy goal is for a cross platform tool as we have people running Linux_ OSX and Windows in my organisation. It would need to support HTTP level authentication of the XMLRPC side of things.\r\n\r\nComments/suggestions welcome.\r\n\r\nIt may come in the form of a Qt App as I need to learn more about that and I'm quite happy in C++ but any other implementation suggestions are welcome (e.g. if python-gtk is a good option I'd like to look into it - Not got any epxerience of running such apps on Windows or OSX tho').\r\n\r\nCol,enhancement,new,normal,WorkLogPlugin,trivial,,desktop integration,,0.10
