His countless, oft-failing jobs are trapped in dependency hell and my jobs are getting fairly big. I'm attempting to document his mess (now mine) and part of that is visualizing the schedule, so I can draw out the dependency and see what's going on/clean it up. There really doesn't seem to be anything, outside of commercial scheduling software, that does this. I'm thinking of something halfway between Project and Sunbird with the ability to include documentation about each job and the things it affects, though it looks like I may need to roll my own solution. I'm wondering how others have solved this problem in their own internal documentation and cleanup efforts."
