HTML Output

[Niels Meersschaert]

Liz, thanks for your reply.  It's nice to know it is simply an  
oversite.  In my organization most of the developers are on Macs,  
while people who need info on projects are on PCs, but aren't running  
Microsoft Project as they aren't project managers.  The html output  
is ideal for us since it gives a great overview & is platform  
agnostic.  The ability to customize the templates is great since  
there are some formatting distinctions I'd like to alter.  What would  
be great for us is the ability to add a URL to the info box like  
OmniOutliner & have that output in the html templates.  Since we do a  
lot of web development, links to other elements or documents for a  
task is important.   Overall, I'm very pleased with the direction  
OmniPlan is going.  While there are some rough spots in OmniPlan &  
some features in Merlin 2.0 that are appealing but missing in OP, I  
think I prefer the design direction of OP.  I actually bought a  
license for Merlin 1.0, but found it so difficult to use that it was  
rarely used... defeating the point.  I'd resorted to laying out  
projects in OmniOutliner, so OmniPlan is a natural migration.
