We plan to add additional metadata to problems in the new OPL. At the moment we are considering the following:
I think that the metadata is important but probably not enough. It is very
difficult the tag a problem well. The ability to search in the text of the problem would be very helpful.
Hi Nandor - agreed about search. It's in the works.
By 'difficult to tag a problem' do you mean that finding suitable tags is difficult, or that the mechanism to add the tags is lacking?
If the former, could you elaborate?
Finding suitable tags is a lot of work. Especially when someone tags dozens
of pg files written by others a long time ago. Perhaps this is the reason it
is so hard to find a problem with the search feature even if I know for a
fact that a certain problem exists. This is why I think full text search is more
useful than keywords search.
