Hi Nick,
The note could be placed on the skill if it does not change from assignment to assignment.
I have an improvement for the HumanrRes app allowing a user to add descriptions on a Skill and it's parent.
In documenting the HumanrRes it was apparent that the Skill form needed improvement. It didn't do much.
I made two improvements that have not been published:
1. In Global HR Settings the Skill feature is divided into Skill and Parent Skill. Both Skill and Parent have a name and a description. This was done to improve the main Skill search screen.
2. The main Skill search is driven by a view, not the Skill entity, which provides more search criteria for finding skills. For example you can search by a Skill Group. You could have a programmer group which could find resources with Java, HTML, Groovy skills etc.
These improvements are documented in my AWS Help Demo but not implemented in the demo.
