Task Juggler Template Generation

[Phil Maker]

G'day,

Firstly thanks to everyone who has contributed to TaskJuggler. I've built a very small extension which might be of
interest to some people. Its been used in a fairly large project with around 2000 activities. The tool implements
a template front end in TCL for TaskJuggler and lets you generate a plan based on a per site property list.
The template systems lets you:

* Define conditional subtasks
* Define property lists and then generate site specific tasks including random durations
* Generate a large list of dependencies from a program

So I guess the first question is should I have written it in Ruby and it is worth finishing off the examples
in github.com/pjmaker/taskjuggler-template (particularly reports, etc). I'm happy to do a bit of work on it
but wanted to get a response to the idea first.

Anyways comments/observations

Thanks

G'day,

The example for the template system has been to
github.com/pjmaker/taskjuggler-template where the example
output is in HMTL/ and the input is in plan.tjt.

I'd be interested in getting feedback from jugglers on the reports
and the template system. The real project its based is a solar
power rollout across Northern Australia (but the example has been cleanedup).

This looks very useful! Templates are always useful. I have cloned this and
will check it out more in detail. Thanks.

Good,

We're using it on a large project here and I'd be happy to work to a better system.
The thought of doing 35 sites in microsoft project causes nightmares for me.
