Yeah, but it's a different view of the same thing, it could be useful to
make it a bit different looking to make it more obvious which view is
currently displayed (not a big issue though...).

The background code and time scale header code should be pretty much
identical I guess, so we should definitely try to share it.


I'd have to say that this looks like a very useful addition to MrProject
and it would be great to get it integrated! 

We are currently trying to plan for a 1.0 release in the not too distant
future, and it would be really cool to have the new view in place for
that. We need to implement printing and support in the HTML export
before we can include the view in a release though. Do you think you'll
be able to work on that? Mikael and I won't have much time, although we
will probably be able to help out a bit.

The best way to get things moving should be to get your view committed
to CVS and have it disabled from the build unless explicitly enabled,
and enable it when it's more complete. How does that sound to you? Do
you have a newer version that we should check into CVS?

Thanks,
Richard
