Hi, Here are some notes from my first go at the WG Chairs extension to the tracker, available at http://beta.wgchairs.yaco.es/wg/eai/ : Bugs: * I find no link that gives me the opportunity to edit the state of a WG document. This makes it a bit hard to test things ,;-) Flaws: * Once it's possible to find the state edit view, it should probably also include the possibility to edit the annotation tags -- tags editing should not be on a separate page. Nits: * The "ID Exists" state is a synthetic state which is shown in some contexts just to indicate that no other state information is available (for instance in TSV formats, where you want to put *some* info into a field for readability and easier parsing). We don't need it here, however; it will confuse things more than it helps as we go forward. * The IETF Stream state boxes in http://beta.wgchairs.yaco.es/wg/eai/ are a bit too verbose, and the box around the state is slightly distracting. I suggest removing the box, and simplifying the state text: - The stream information is orthogonal to the state information; it should probably get its own column. - The state information consists of two parts: which state machine it refers to (RFC-editor, IESG, WG, and in the future others). Maybe indicate the state machine first, in small letters, followed by the state and annotation tags. Maybe something like this?: --+---------+-------------------------------------+-- | RFC-Ed. . Auth 48 | | IESG . Sent to RFC-Ed. | | WG . Submitted to IESG for Publication | --+---------+-------------------------------------+-- | WG . WG Document::Author or Editor Needed| --+---------+-------------------------------------+-- | WG . In WG Last Call | --+---------+-------------------------------------+-- | . | * The '(Default WG Workflow)' indication adds noise and it isn't worth it to show it. That's it for now. Best, Henrik
