Description

In discussion with one of our users the other day, It occurred to me that one can post project meetings in the project calendar by making
"Meeting" a new tracker type. Out of the box, you get:

  • Meeting shows up on project calendar on the right day
  • You can "invite" people to the meeting by setting them as watchers
  • You can make subtasks for people to do things to prepare for the meeting

The downsides are that you have to:

  • put the time and location of the meeting in the Subject and/or description
  • Some issue fields (i.e. percent done, etc.) don't really apply
  • No way to create a repeating meeting, but you can copy the previous one and change the date.

It occurs to me that one could correct most of the downsides by making Issues and Meetings subclasses of a common type that shows up in the calendar, but make Meetings have a few differing fields.
