Description

This set of tools will allow grassroots activists to better organize projects and campaigns and will also be useful to end-users working on almost any type or project. Existing tools for Drupal are lacking key features, often not very user-friendly, and almost never packaged for easy setup. I will address these problems by:

  • Adding functionality to existing task tracking modules
  • Creating the capacity for subgroups
  • Allowing for discussion listservs to integrate seamlessly with groups
  • Creating a module to plan, track, and document meetings

Project schedule

I am maintaining a list of user stories on Pivotal Tracker. The best way to see what features I am working on and what the rest of the timeline looks like is to check out the Roadmap
