I’m working up a list of status types for the tasks of a web app project. I’ve seen so many variations on this but they seem to be either too vague or too numerous.
I decided to write out what I felt mattered when I was on the receiving end of such a list and here’s what I came up with:
There’s nothing there
There’s something there
It works
It looks good
It’s ready for testing
I’m happy with the meaning here, but it’s a bit unprofessional. If you can suggest a replacement for one of these that I like, I’ll send you a coupon code for a free copy of one of my iOS applications (just look under “Products” on http://www.gullicksonlaboratories.com/ ).
