I love the simplicity of Case Tracker, but when you create a case for a project management things become more complicated.
My thinking is that for a case to be resolved there are usually a series of tasks that need to be resolved first.
In this issue tracker in drupal it seems to be done through pages and pages of comments. I am wondering however if a hierarchical reference structure would ever be in the scope of this module?

I am aware of other modules like storm with this type of functionality, but the simplicity of case tracker to build upon, is what I am after.

Cheers :)

It's possible that something like this map be possible with casetracker.... someday. In the 1.x branch we won't be doing this. I'm experimenting with a radically different structure for casetracker (here http://github.com/miccolis/casetracker in case you want to follow along) which would make this possible but I can't say when (and if really) it'll become part of the official casetracker project.

I've thrown together something based on CCK that works for me on the 1.x line: http://grayside.org/2009/11/casetracker-subtasks. Most of the connection with Case Tracker is in the theme override.

Hi. Please is there a plan to roll this into the official version ?

Unfortunately not. This functionality might exist in the future as part of Case Tracker 2. The tarball above is a CCK-based system which has a slim chance of a slight upgrade and becoming a barely supported Feature Module available on a site other than D.O.

You might be able to fund jmiccolis to expedite CT2 and prioritize subcases.
