What features would you like for a command line work item tracking tool?
One of my team is looking into what a command line tool for Work Item Tracking might look like. We'd like it to be something that you could use without a GUI so that it could be suitable for scripting.
What would you like it to do? What problems would you use it to solve? Does it sound useful to you?
I'd love to have your input - I want to make sure we're creating something that is useful to you. Feel free to post a comment here, or contact me directly.
Thanks!

John,
I think it would be usefull to have a tool that enabled administrators to remove work items and, as Martin Woodward said, to move work items between projects.
Thanks,

I like David's idea of having it be based on the Microsoft Command Shell. The .NET scripting support in MSH (aka Monad) would be a natural fit for the .NET object model for TFS. MSH also provides many useful SQL like utilities that would be handy for slicing WIT data from the CLI. - Anonymous

Way off topic here but what I would really like to see is a web interface for editing/adding/deleting work items

it would be great if we could get all the workitems as XML or an other format file to be used by other tools or applications as well as writing scripts in the case of administrators... - Anonymous
