in reply to Monastery To Do (or) To Add List

To add to the "pro" arguments, this would allow the "easy things that vroom would do anyway if he just had a minute" to be gathered into a single place, so that when that mythical minute comes, he knows what to do. At least for me, it's kind of frustrating to suggest a little fix, get it voted up, and then have it (seemingly) forgotten.

As to implementation, maybe level 6+ monks could have an extra button in their "Consider" nodelet, only for PMD nodes, that says "to do". This would automatically create the necessary crosslink to the todo list. Or make it another cross for the janitors to bear...

Just my 0.02 € .

    Even having minimal experience with the Everything engine, I can tell you that, for the most part, none of the changes suggested in past discussions (the ones I saw) are things that take merely a minute to do. On JavaJunkies, just setting up the various link and code parsing aspects of the site has required crazyinsomniac to create several different parsing functions for nodes, fields, text, etc. Creating new sections of the site similar to the SOPW takes oakbox hours.

    We haven't had experience in implementing the voting or moderation system yet, but I'm sure it takes time. An extra button may take longer then you think to add. The pieces behind the scene are not always quick in development.

    Knowing what's being worked on and developed within the site would be useful. Taking time away from working and developing it to tell the users what's being done seems wasteful. vroom would let us know about any significant changes. Patience. Wait to see the changes. Watching your change crawl a todo list won't make it come any sooner.
