v112 v113 595 595 While I like the idea of where you are going with this. The concepts and "design" section have taken a turn towards specific implementations. I would suggest a combination of making these ideas configurable, as well as extending various classes and providers to be extensible/replaceable. 596 596 - For example, one may not want a "work" field, since man hours effort, in their project may have little value. Instead, they may wish to use "days" for calendar time, or "dollars" for contractor costs. 597 - instead of "risk", Imight want business value.597 - instead of "risk", one might want business value. 598 598 - for any of this meta data, it would seem logical to support "Calculated fields" for the children, such as in the ValuePropagationPlugin 599 599 - Another area is the "providers" The ability to assign a provider to return the value in a custom or default field. 600 - for example: '''% Complete''', a straight calculation of hours done/hours total may work in most casts, my specific case....weneed to provide it manually on some wiki page, which a provider looks up....., or something)601 - or a more pointed example, "calculated completion date", lets assume i want to use an [http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2007/10/26.html Evidence Based Scheduling] approach. in which case, I may also want to replace the Gantt views with the Probable ship datesgraph? or maybe not.... The ability to do so would be key however.600 - for example: '''% Complete''', a straight calculation of hours done/hours total may work in most casts, for a specific case....one might need to provide it manually on some wiki page, which a provider looks up....., or something) 601 - or a more pointed example, "calculated completion date", lets assume the company wants to use an [http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2007/10/26.html Evidence Based Scheduling] approach. in which case, they may also want to replace the Gantt views with the ''Probable Ship Dates'' graph? or maybe not.... The ability to do so would be key however. 602 602 603 603 It almost seems like any custom or default field added to this concept should be able to specify it's very own provider, optionally.
