Heard a thing recently about fancy watches and was reminded I just love that they call features "complications". We should start doing that in software.
"Sweet, version 2 is out! Check out these new complications!"
"OK, and is that complication a must have, should have, could have, or won't have?"
"I really need the database complication to do my work"
"But adding that complication will extend the deadline by two weeks"

@nprofile…2ath I did one of those, happy to chat :-) Actually started on mediawiki with a custom extension until it was clear that that UI/UX wasn't good enough for most people to edit, especially around reoccurring events.
Mentioned in latest blog post: https://www.datatig.com/2024/12/24/talk.html and check link to older blog at end: https://opendataservices.coop/blog/2020/05/07/community-data.html
