existing tags. I'd like to be able to use a small controlled set of
tags to manage my long running project. As it stands, the list has
become polluted with all kinds of useless tags, thus making it more
difficult to encourage usage of the 'approved' tags.</p>
<p>This also seems like a problem for Rails. I hadn't really logged
into the system for a couple months, and though it seems core was
trying to control this at the outset, now there are hundreds of
tags.</p>
<p>I know it's not an easy problem to solve. Any thoughts from the
team or from other customers?</p></div>gabetag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/221452008-12-11T00:03:51Z2009-06-20T20:09:31ZManaging Tags<div><p>We have plans for a mass tag editor which should be ready in the
near future. Open Lighthouse projects do often get clunky with tags
and ticket organization, which is part of the reason we built
http://tenderapp.com in order to split the input from the
developers workflow, but be able to integrate the two
seamlessly.</p></div>Will Duncantag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/221452008-12-11T00:55:59Z2009-06-20T20:09:33ZManaging Tags<div><p>Well damn, I didn't even realize this was your new app
integrated with lighthouse.</p>
<p>I gotta say this looks pretty sweet. Personally for me
Lighthouse has never quite hit the sweet spot and I've oscillated
between Lighthouse and a lighter-weight process using basecamp
todos and writeboards, but this is a definite killer app.</p>
<p>The tag organization issue is surprisingly quiet on Google, but
I gotta say a basic tag manager would increase the usability for my
project by an order of magnitude.</p></div>gabetag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/221452008-12-11T04:15:31Z2009-06-20T20:09:48ZManaging Tags<div><p>Thanks, Tender has been quite a trip so far. Still some kinks to
work out.</p>
<p>You can follow http://lhstatus.com or
http://twitter.com/lhstatus for Lighthouse announcements and status
updates. When we deploy the tag editor feature, we'll be posting
there. Sadly, we don't have an ETA at the moment, but hopefully
within the next few weeks.</p></div>Will Duncan
