Although I am not using Tasktop but CollabNet Desktop, it is real nice to have the Mylyn integration for trackers. As we are using ClearQuest in parallel, I would be interested to get mor information about the ClearQuest connector. Can you pint to any document?. Thanks Wolfgang Mik,

Over the past year we have seen tremendous interest from programmers and from larger organizations wanting to streamline their developers' workflow with Mylyn and Tasktop. We learned that the main impediment to adoption was availability of connectors, and as such made that the priority for this release. So today's crop of new connectors is targeted at developers and <i>software</i> project managers. In addition, this release is riding the Eclipse Galileo wave, adding to its focus on software development. But the good news is that we haven't been ignoring general project and task management, and that you won't have to wait until the next release to try out what we have coming. This Friday we're start a limited beta of a new kind of task-focused collaboration technology targeted beyond software development. Please contact info at tasktop.com stating that you're interested in participating. Other Tasktop users interested in learning more about this should get on the <a href="https://tasktop.com/support/faq/#earlyAccessBuilds" rel="nofollow">Early Access</a> program as we'll continue rolling out invitations over the summer.

I myself was attracted to the program as a project manager *not* involved in software development. As such, I feel that Tasktop has left me behind. Last year, during discussions with the userbase, it was clearly noted that Tasktop would address the needs of non-programmers as well. I myself have renewed my subscription, but can't help being disappointed by the direction of development; the screenshot above is rather typical: only 2 out of 10 connectors (not counting Taskto Pro) are targeted to non-programmers as well. At the same time, a plethora of (mainly) mind mapping applications are getting a multitude of new features and extensions, including web clients, evolving into powerful general project management tools, and slowly but steadily capturing this huge market. By the time (if ever) Tasktop caters for PMs outside the software development world, it will probably be too late for anyone out there to notice.
