An End Limit is something like a milestone (a date by which work has to be complete) but I realize it's not quite the same (certainly not the same as a Trac milestone). The Start Limit is a new data item. These may be extra data needed for full PM functionality that gets deferred -- like FF dependencies -- in the interest of getting something done now with a vision of a more complete solution later. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
