Short overview and ideas for the future of ClockingIT
As I don't want you to feel locked in, and I also want to give you the option of migrating to your own installation this is very much needed. Some people don't trust my backup routines, even though I've never lost any data in ClockingIT.
New Feature, Defect, Improvement and Task is not always what you need.
ClockingIT is very much geared towards software development, and allowing people to add custom properties (select, textbox, radio button, checkbox) to tasks would allow people to expand and tweak the system to handle whatever they need.
Save project as template, and import / re-use when creating a new project.
Create own workflow for tasks, for example
New → Verified → Open → In Progress → Resolved → Tested → Deployed
New → Verified → Open → In Progress → Resolved → Reopened
New → Invalid
New → Duplicate
or
New → Contact → Follow Up → Contract
or
New → Requested Information → Pending Reply → Emailed Solution → Closed
New → Emailed Solution → Closed
To be able to properly give an overview of the schedule forward, I need to know when to consider a task and when to ignore it.
CVS and SVN is mostly working, but I need to make an API so that you don't have to give me access to your repository.
It would be fun to be able to graph any property / pivot report in bar, pie and line graphs. They could also be included in the customizable Overview page to give a good visual queue on the projects status.
To better care for OpenSource projects, it would be great to have a public interface which doesn't require a proper user so that anyone interested could see the status of the project, and add comments and new issues.
