I'm in agreement that the page is for end users (not primarily a
planning page). I do think that a little bit of information on related
bugs is interesting/useful for users -- they could want to know if/when
we plan on fixing a bug or adding support for something.
My main complaint with the current page is that the "description" column
is all scrunched and unreadable. I'd rather have a list of products and
link to detailed instructions than try and read that as is.
Cheers,
Katie

Ah, ic. I think there is value in calling out issues in the same place,
but you're right, the emphasis should be more about instructions and
less about bugs. I will take another pass at this page with this in mind...

Last week we had some discussion about the desktop import/export wiki
page:
<http://chandlerproject.org/Projects/PreviewDesktopImportExport>. I
volunteered to drive a revision of this page.
I see that Mimi has already removed some of the stuff that I found
most objectionable: use of the wiki for bugzilla like tasks. This
is an end user page. If we want to plan to rectify deficiencies in
our Import/Export support, I think we should do that on a separate
page (or move this content to a separate page).
I think that this page should just be a list of products, and
instructions for how to import/export data between that product and
Chandler desktop. If we don't currently have solutions but feel
that a product is important, we should have an entry that says
something like: "We don't have an import/export recipe for XXX yet,
if you use XXX and have a recipe, feel free to add it here. If you
want hep debugging the Chandler end of a recipe that you are working
on, you can drop a note onto the chandler-users mailing list."
Thoughts?
