 == Description
 
-The FlashGanttPlugin is a plugin designed to create a close to Gantt like chart based around the existing concepts involved in Trac. Beyond that this plugin is primarily designed to give what we will call a Trac Gantt like view of the milestones, NOT the tickets.
+This is a plugin to create Gantt-like charts in Trac. This plugin is primarily designed to give a Trac Gantt-like view of the milestones, NOT the tickets.
 
-It is our experience that reporting Gantt charts on tickets becomes very overwhelming and is unnecessary. Hence, we have created this plugin. We also believe that start date association with milestones is pretty useless. Hence, our Gantt chart doesn't look like a normal Gantt chart that has bars inset from one another. In our Gantt chart all of the bars start at the earliest point in time and go to their Due Date, while the Actual bars go from the earliest point in time and go to the Completed Date. When ordered by Due Date this results in a stair step looking Gantt chart.

-The FlashGanttPlugin for Trac uses [http://www.fusioncharts.com/Free/ FusionCharts Free] to display a Flash Gantt chart.

-After implementing the above (the current code base), we decided that in most situations it produces somewhat of an uninteresting graph. Given our firm belief that our original argument was valid we have decided to now implement a hybrid. We will add support for a special "flashgantt"
-ticket type. Beyond that the custom-ticket fields "Start Date", "Due Date", "Dev Lead", "Des Lead", and "Proj Manager" will be added. The completed date will be the date at which a ticket is closed.

 Hence, we will then chart on the Gantt these "flashgantt" tickets as they would appear on a normal Gantt chart as well as chart their related milestones to produce a more useful and interesting graph.

 '''Note:''' [http://trac-hacks.org/svn/flashganttplugin/0.11 FlashGanttPlugin for Trac 0.11] appears to be compatible with Trac 0.12, though it has not been exhaustively tested.
