6511,Integration with TaskFreak! or other task management software,rjollos,anybody,I've been thinking that a nice plugin might be an integration with [http://www.taskfreak.com/ TaskFreak!] or a similar web-based task management software.  Some things I had in mind are:\r\n\r\n * Associate tasks with tickets so that tasks could be fine-grained work associated with a ticket.\r\n * Display tasks and tickets together in a single report.\r\n * [TracLinks TracLink] for tasks.\r\n * Some macros to list tasks.\r\n * Associate tasks with milestones.\r\n * Link '''Projects''' in !TaskFreak! with Milestones in Trac. For instance_ every milestone could be a '''Project''' in !TaskFreak!_ but one may want to also have '''Projects''' in !TaskFreak! that are not milestones.\r\n * Provide separate user and team views of tasks.\r\n\r\nThe one thing I don't like about !TaskFreak! is that I have yet to find a desktop client_ although perhaps some of the Trac desktop clients could be modified to support tasks.\r\n\r\nMy primary interest in this is so I can have other aspects of the engineering process handled in Trac_ such as mechanical and hardware engineering. The ticket interface and workflow we use for software are not ideal for managing these other aspects of a project in Trac_ and there is also not great support for multiple workflows and multiple ticket types with different fields.\r\n\r\nIf anyone else has an interest in this_ let's discuss.\r\n\r\nSee also #240.,enhancement,new,normal,Request-a-Hack,normal,,,,0.11
