Speaking in taskjuggler syntax it would be as follows:
task alpha "Alpha Test" {
effort 1w
depends !!software
allocate test, dev2
note "Hopefully most bugs will be found and fixed here."
journalentry 2002-03-01 "Contract with Peter not yet signed" {
author boss
alert red
summary -8<-
The paperwork is stuck with HR and I can't hunt it down.
->8-
details -8<-
If we don't get the contract closed within the next week,
the start of the testing is at risk.
->8-
}
}
AFAIK the org-mode taskjuggler exporter was previously able to handle
this if given the following headline:
* task
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 1w
:depends: software
:allocate: test dev2
:note: "Hopefully most bugs will be found and fixed here."
:journalentry: 2002-03-01 "Contract with Peter not yet signed" {
author boss
alert red
summary -8<-
The paperwork is stuck with HR and I can't hunt it down.
->8-
details -8<-
If we don't get the contract closed within the next week,
the start of the testing is at risk.
->8-
}
:END:
Oh, and btw: there can be more than one journalentry. So, given this
taskjuggler feature is not very often used and drawer machinery is not
really suited for this use case I suggest we just drop support for it.
Maybe the user can just squeeze the whole entry on one line interspersed
with \ns.
Thanks
Christian
