As discussed recently elsewhere, this is unlikely to happen any
time soon.

Therefore, Ague benchmarked Redmine (thank you) against a list of
actions that I felt were needed for usage without a web browser --
that may be offline usage, or for those of us who simply like it
better this way.

So, I think we should now evaluate and discuss the results [1],
and decide whether we feel it's good enough. Let's go.
I'm only quoting and discussing the limitations.

This drawback can be seen as a welcome incentive to split tickets and
bind them using the parent/child tickets relationship, instead of
having a single big ticket with several "next thing to do" in it. So,
I'll personally consider this limitation is an advantage ;)

This will be a pain for usecases such as splitting a big ticket into
smaller ones, or adding a "next step" child ticket.

I think I can live with that.

I think I can live with that.

I've verified the Atom feed's URL is easy to guess from the ticket ID,
so I think this is good enough.

To sum up, only one drawback seems really painful for me. IMHO, this
is greatly compensated with the advantages to switching to a better
task manager, so I think it's certainly good enough.

What about you?

Cheers,
