Allocating agroup this way allows you to schedule a task, but the
use-case I'm thinking of is the other way around (and ideally I'd like
to be able to use task juggler for both).
Say I know that a task is to start and finish at a certain date, and
that certain skill are required (say python coding) and I have a group
set up called 'python_devel', with all the individual members defined in
terms of vacations etc.. then what I want to know is which developers
with these skills are available, or should be sent a message asking if
they would like to undertake that piece of work. So it's a case of
finding a suitable resource for a task, rather than specifying a
resource to a task and then figuring out when that task can take place.
Hope that is clearer?
