[chandler-users] Software Development

[Jos Yule]

Hello all.

I've been using Chandler successfully now since the 7.x release, and 
have been quite happy.

I'm using it for both personal and business "stuff", and i'm trying to 
get a feel for how other might be using for Software Development.

Redmine (http://www.redmine.org) is a web-based software development 
tool, with issue tracking, milestones, message boards, wiki's and 
integrated version control tools. It really quite rocks. However, a lot 
of the time i feel like it is over-kill for most of my projects. I like 
the flexibility that Chandler gives me.

On one of my projects, i'm using the Hub to give access to some of the 
projects notes to other stakeholders, coders, artist, audio guys, etc. 
... What i'm doing is, in Chandler, i've got a collection, Project X, 
which is where i keep all my notes related to that project. I then have 
a "Project X Public" collection which is published to the Hub, where i 
have dragged notes which are to be shared with other team members from 
the private "Project X" collection. I've got a BUGS note, and a CURRENT 
WORK note. This seems to be working so far, but i'm wondering what other 
software devs do (if anything)? I haven't had to get too granular so 
far, ie. just a general BUGS note, but i figure that if i need to i can 
create a new note for each important bug, and have that in the public 
collection too... I've also got a LOG note where i record what i've been 
working on...

Anyway, that's what i'm doing... How about you? :)
