Updated #TaskJuggler to the latest version in my #COPR repository for @fedora :

copr.fedorainfracloud.org/copr

TaskJuggler is an Open Source project management tool. It's full of great features---scheduling, resource allocation, gannt charts, reports and reporting, all of it. See the documentation here: taskjuggler.org/documentation.

I use it to manage all my work projects, and it's a real boon. Give it a go!

The Agile vs. Waterfall Trolley Dilemma

You find yourself standing before a complex, control panel in a dimly lit room. Two paths diverge before you: one labeled "Agile", the other "Waterfall". A single, rusted lever protrudes from the center.

To your left, the Agile path, a lively bunch of developers are sprinting towards a rapidly approaching deadline, their hair on fire, eyes wide with panic. They're still iterating and refining their product, but time is running out. If you pull the lever, you'll derail their momentum, forcing them to focus and deliver something actually finished and useful on time. But if you don't, they might sprint off the cliff of completion, leaving behind a half-baked mess.

To your right, the Waterfall path, a team of meticulous, bespectacled analysts are methodically working their way through a towering stack of Gantt charts. They're following the plan to the letter, but a massive boulder of a feature has just rolled onto their critical path. If you pull the lever, you'll redirect their focus, allowing them to adapt and deliver the essentials. But if you don't, the boulder might crush their entire project under an avalanche of scope creep.

What do you do? Pull the lever and disrupt the status quo, or leave things as they are and hope for the best?
