This topic might be dead, but one can make one's own stylesheet to get rid of Verdana-ed text if one is willing.

Depends on the browser, Robert. Not all allow it.

ita, the first four (request, priority, requestor (first only), post in which requested), are already covered, although I can combine them for easire reading (currently I have two tables, one by post number, one by priority). For the others, I have the information only in a few cases, so you'll have to give me that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Not all that information yet exists -- but we should make sure there are columns for it.

And we need to work out an easy way to post it, both here and to the mailing list.

Some of it - 'date requested', for instance- just needs finding, by scareing out the posts themselves. I can do that when I have lots of time. Some of it already exists in the form of 'implementation stage'- that's notes I've taken along the way 'so-and-so is working it', 'it's being tested' or suchlike, but I don't have dates for that sort of thing, because I assumed I was simply keeping a 'what's happening now' list.

As for simple ways to post it to the mailing list or here, um... not simple. (Which mailing list, specifically?)

The development mailing list.

Right. I'm not on that, and I'm not sure if I should be or not. I don't really count as a developer.

In the first instance, I'm putting general dates (like, month/year) for things, to give me some idea.

Whoever is maintaining the task list is part of the development team, and therefore should be on it.

And you are.

Is that 'you are' 'are part of the team', or 'you are now on the list'? If it's the first (as I suspect it is), can you tell me how to acheive the second, please?

You are on the list. The list has not yet been posted to.
