Introduction

Launchpad.net is a wonderful tool for developing Ubuntu. Most teams use it effectively to manage their resources and time.

Polls

If you are a team administrator, you can setup a poll using the following guidelines. Be careful! If you set a poll with a time that has already passed, you will not be able to adjust it at all. Further still, the poll will remain on the list of polls causing possible confusion.

  1. Click the "Polls" link and select the "Add a new poll" option.
  2. Fill out the form. The date should be submitted in the <YEAR>-<MONTH>-<DAY> <HOUR>:<MINUTE>:<SECONDS> format. For example  2006-10-12 12:00  would set the date to October 12th, 2006 at exactly 12:00 universal time. Make sure that you take the universal time format into account. Make sure you set at least a few minutes aside to set up your options for the poll.

  3. Add options once you have successfully created the poll. The  Option Name  and  Title Name  will show up as "Option Name: Title Name" in the poll area. An example of this might be something like "Here is your first option: This describes your first option as per the title area."

If you have completed the above steps, the poll will commence on the appropriate time with the specfications you have chosen.

Calendar

If you add a calendar for your team, you can add events very easily.

  1. Simply click on a given date and select a time slot for your event.
  2. Describe your event.

After completion, the event should appear as a bold number on the calendar for all to view.
