Blueprint for the Project Management Module

We need the ability to build task lists & set Milestones.
This needs to usable across several different Projects, each of which has it's own Admin.

In order to help refine this we should 'eat our own dog food' & use the system for our own internal coordination.

This has so far been built in Vol & subsequently moved to Org, but the user-facing part will move into a project controller (whether the models follow is still up for debate).

Requirements outstanding:

• Project Task assigned to should show Title (& name) in .requires/.represent
• Project Task assigned to should be 1->M component & link table should track %FTE
• Dropdown of roles to assign to the project should by default be filtered to just those with spare capacity on these dates
  • This can be easily over-ridden by unticking this checkbox (same place as filter to just my organisation(s)/my office(s)
• Onvalidation check should warn when roles are being over-committed (link to other project if readable)
• Staff_Budget should be a 1-1 component link (like person/volunteer) Name?
• Project_Beneficiary should be a component link
  • this then acts as DVR!?
• Project_Donor should be a component link: Need different key joins. beware export loops, so for now define components in controllers only? (try it out)
  • either move organisation crud strings to model or else define other donor ones
• Need to integrate project/position with budget_staff

Naming: Staff vs Position

• Latter good for Budgetting/Vacancies
  • This should therefore be a Report on Staff with blank person_id
• Staff Report shouldn't include such vacancies, although organigram should
• Staff Report needs de-duplicating: Person 1->M Roles
• Staff is person_id to organisation_id?
• Role is person_id to project_id?

Alternatives:

• Trac
