I don't believe I've ever claimed putting a tool out there induces people to automatically use it.� But my own extensive experiences suggests that a web-based project management tool will be very useful for the needs Carsten expressed.� Not THE solution but certainly a big part of one. > Project management tools are tricky beasts, since every project > manager seems to have a favorite tool along with deep hatred for > other project management tools, so I've found it difficult in the > past to standardize on a single tool. Difficulty != Impossibility.� Let's not let tricky beasts get the best of us in identifying solutions. > In general, I'd rather implement something based on requirements than > perceived potential need that may or may not materialize. � Me too, and what I've proposed fits the former, not the latter.� The need HAS materialized, and the basis is in Carsten's plea. > If it's > something needed by only a couple of people, there are many project > management tools outside of the MeeGo infrastructure that people can > use.
