Hello:
A comments on the Task Feature List.
Maybe if we have task dependencies then we don't
really need sub-tasks? Maybe if we have Projects and
sub-projects, then we don't really need sub-tasks?
Q: Can tasks has sub-tasks?
Probably. Having the ability to compose bigger
workflows from smaller workflows is a good thing.
Q:Maybe if we have task dependencies then we don't
really need sub-tasks?
I view sub-tasks and task dependencies dealing with
two different (but related) problems. Sub-tasks are
about organization and task dependencies about
temporal ordering.
Q:Maybe if we have Projects and sub-projects, then we
don't really need sub-tasks?
Again, I think projects deal with a different
conceptual problem: managing resources to achieve a
goal.
Cheers,
Andrew
