[ros-dev] Action list

It would be cool to have some kind of interface for our website.
What I'm imagining is, that every developer has a list of "workitems" he 
can define. A Workitem consists of a short name, an optional desription, 
optional notes, possibly something like percentage done, estimated time. 
A bug can also be a workitem. You can enqueue multiple workitems, that 
is the stuff you plan to work on in the future. You can mark one or two 
items as active, these are what you are currently working on.
People can also push workitems to other people. For example someone 
starts to find a bug, then he notices that the bug is not in his area of 
expertise. So after talking to another dev, he pushes that item to him, 
so the other dev can handle it.
There could be a global list that shows all items, who owns them and if 
they are active.
Bugs from bugzilla can also be pushed to devs. every dev should have 
only one bug at a time to avoid having huge lists of stuff that doesn't 
look like fun.
The interface should be easy to use, not require much work to maintain 
it and still flexible enough for advanced stuff.
Whenever something happens in the list, it could appear on a feed on the 
front page

Ok, that was all just ideas. Maybe one day we can have something like 
that :)
