I've been thinking about this a bit after your presentation and have some ideas. One of my primary uses for jic as a lead will be to use it to help report generation for my upstream (Agustin, Mark, etc). I see that we can add/show comments but I would like to add some intelligence to this. What I'm imagining is a way to mark the comment as either a "weekly highlight" or a "monhtly highlight" via an embedded hashtag (#weeklyhighlight, #monthlyhighlight). My first thought was to just have this be part of standard reporting policy and folks cold just manually add the hasthags, but since jic is already customized to our setup, I'm thinking we could just add some options to the command line to both mark comments as highlights and also to only extract weekly/monthly highlights for a certain time period.
Thanks for another use-case! I love those! :)
We could do it the way you've described. I don't see anything impossible in this approach.
Alternatively we could do it using the Engineering Progress Update (EPU) field and have the weekly hilight message being added to EPU and as a new comment at the same time. This approach will require no additional code to be added. :)
Thoughts? ~Deepak
