Open Integrity Project: Work Stream Tasks

This document tracks tasks across multiple work streams (branches) for the Open Integrity Project. It serves as the single source of truth for project status and planning.

Work Stream Management Strategy

To maintain this document's integrity while supporting parallel development, follow these guidelines:

1. Single Source of Truth

   • This document in main is the official record of all work streams
   • Each task is tagged with its branch name in square brackets: [branch-name]
   • Only update your branch's sections, leave other sections intact

2. Status Updates

   • When making significant progress in a branch, update this document with status
   • Create a small, focused PR to update just your branch's tasks in this document
   • Keep documentation changes separate from code changes where possible

3. Branch Creation Process

   • When creating a new branch, add a new section to this document
   • Follow the existing format: branch name, description, and priority levels
   • Tag all tasks with the branch name in square brackets

4. Completion Updates

   • When a task is completed, mark it as done and add the completion date
   • Move completed tasks to the "Completed" section under your branch
   • Final branch PR should include the completed status in this document

This approach keeps all status information in one place while clearly assigning ownership of tasks to specific branches.
