Thats a nice chart for sure. Thanks for posting. Still wouldn't mind a Pie chart showing the current division of resources.

SekeRob, I like your pies. Especially the blueberry and cherry, my two current projects.

The fun with a chart often preceded by,

* Research, for novel techniques - 30 minutes to hours.
* Coding, 15 minutes
* Polishing, how ever long you wish to spend time on this
* Robusting, a mix of a certain coffee and testing to ensure it does not fall over.

The blueberry and cherry are actually colors given by a 5 level percent share test, levels arbitrary.

<0.01 Light Grey (Just not truly zero)
<4 Grey
>4 < 10 Red
>10 < 25 Orange
>25 <35 Blue
>35 [OET] Green

The final version restores the up/down/stable arrows and plants the percent share in the pies.

If you like pies, there's http://bit.ly/WCGPI1 and http://bit.ly/WCGSHR too, latter expressing percentage share in a bubble chart. If the bubbles are fitting to the diagonal axis, there are no disparities. MCM is actually out of the virtual axis, gets more 'reward' for whatever reason.

Edit: Added a 6th pie color level and managed, using the undocumented feature trick-box, to get the share percent to print on top of the pies and moved this version to production.

Enjoy

Still don't know how progress could be pied, but donuts you can get as many as wanted, absent the sugar coating ;): http://bit.ly/WCGPI1 . Does not help me in any way to decide which project is to get my resources to help finish them up fastest. For that there's the conventional progress bars, on charts and on the Research Overview pages.

Well now, got a small epiphany 2 weeks before Jan.6. Maybe it can be done in a 'roundabout' way, outside the box so to speak. If technicians and scientists can't provide the volume of work in steady, stable streams though, no win win either. Watch this space, or any other random space it happens to fall into
