Part 4

This week it finally worked again. My plan with the blocked time phases in the calendar went off. I was able to write almost continuously on Wednesday.

In the process, I noticed a few little things in AsciiDoc that I want to share with you.

iCloud Drive Shared Folders in macOS Monterey

iCloud Drive

iCloud Drive includes a feature for sharing content with others since macOS Big Sur and iOS/iPadOS 14, which is very handy and great for collaborating on projects from Merlin Project. In macOS Monterey, sharing via iCloud Drive has gotten even better.

Did you know that Merlin Project has a patented synchronization? You can always share your projects with your team or view them on other devices. Try it now for 30 days free of charge.

News From The Merlin Project Support Team

You plan your projects with Merlin Project? Typically, your project goes through various stages from start to finish. So you start your project with conception and initiation, proceed in defining and planning it. Then launch its execution, check on its performance and control it until its closure.

In a single-user situation, you as a project manager use Merlin Project to take care of things like scope, prerequisites, define the required work packages, add activities, assign them to available resources, request budget and track expected cost and scheduling.

A New Manual In AsciiDoc

Part 3

Cover page of the Merlin Project manual

I had already feared it at the beginning; with all the motivation to write the book quickly - the day-to-day business somehow always gets in the way.

In the last week I was on the road a lot. On behalf of Merlin Project, of course. And this week one surprise followed the next.

The result is unsatisfying, but clear: I couldn't write 20 sentences.

So I can save the current Kanban board here too; because it still looks exactly the same.

Next week it will go on... hopefully.
