First screenshots of version 3

These are two preview screenshots of Gantt and dependencies graphs from version 3:



This is a Gantt; this is zoomable, and is also a viewport. All this in pure HTML and Ajax; it is NOT a gif !




This is a dependency graph. Notice also the joystick on the right. These are incredible feats of Roberto Bicchierai.






He he he...

Teamwork 3 alpha

We launched last week the new site and Teamwork 3 alpha early access program; our hidden goal was to have 80 subscriptions by September 15, and we already reached 81 today (Sept. 6, 2005) :-) .

Teamwork 3 is coming out beautiful beyond expectations. The ease of construction, the ergonomic features, the x-y layouts used in HTML for the graphs.. just great.

A lot of work still to be done; we'll keep adding features to the alpha, at least while the subscribers don't get too impatient. Right now we are building a wizards framework, a dinamic help and the setup procedures.

Moreover we put a demo of 2 on line. Some Japanese (probably ?) user set up a task structure as attached; what does it mean ? :-)

Electronic Arts

Just read the "ea_spouse" chapter in Joel's "Best in Software Writings". Well, just never ever give a penny to Electronic Arts.

But again, what a desolated way of living, a company that structurally exploits the programmers just for the sake of it.. . Their site sadly hides this behind an ugly "A.C.T.I.O.N" acronym, which actually means: we will exploit you.

In our software house, we put work quality conditions as the very first value; this definitely needs blogging, too.

"Bin-jip" movie by Ki-duk Kim

So crude and delicate, maybe 20 phrases in the whole movie.. beautiful.
