Hi,

Soon enough we'll be announcing some changes to Launchpad (it will be
sent to this list as well) that will affect
launchpad-work-items-tracker. Namely, we're now going to store the work
items as first class DB objects. The reason we're doing that is so that
we can implement things like
https://dev.launchpad.net/Projects/WorkItems in Launchpad.

For users, this means they'll now enter the work items in a separate
text area (using the same format as before) instead of the whiteboard.
And for lp-wi-tracker it means using the .workitems_text property of
ISpecification instead of .whiteboard. The new property uses the same
format for work items as the previous one, so the only change needed to
get lp-wi-tracker working with it is what I've proposed here:


https://code.launchpad.net/~salgado/launchpad-work-items-tracker/use-new-workitems-lp-property/+merge/96135

The changes I described here haven't been deployed to LP yet, but it'd
be nice to get my merge proposal above accepted so that it's ready to go
into status.u.c as soon as the LP changes are deployed and the
announcement is out.

Cheers,
