- I did, it basically went well! Only a few minor issues from my notes above to Trac. -- Skierpage 21:13, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] smw : custom types and more
Hi Skier
mstone cant' sleep because he is worried about how to customize presentation of test results. In particular, Property:Trac_bug_number shows trac numbers that a) have commas in their display format and b) don't link to trac pages.
Ideally, every time a trac number shows up in a query result it should link directly to a canonical trac url. This is easier if there's no comma involved :) but the more important point is that there are common use cases where you want a canonical link associated with a property.
- Yup. If you always want the link, then I think you have to write PHP code for a new datatype. That would also let you turn off the irritating commas that mess up workarounds like displaying query results with a template. -- Skierpage 07:38, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
we could have people enter an external url, including the linktext (say, just a number) rather than the dlo trac ticket number... but there seems to be something missing in that solution as well.
For related use cases where we want links associated with a property according to a simple rule, see template:test-case-query. (in that case, the fact that subjects always show up as links, with wikitext page, was the frustration; a way to reflect on the name of a subject would be handy here.)
Please help! And explain what the latest updates on [1] are when you have time...
- That's very old. The Germans are developing SMW 1.3 features. -- Skierpage 07:38, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
