Thanks for the reply!
I will continue writing code and developing the project. And when I'm
done, nobody will need any of those non-free project/task/todo
management tools.
I'm writing it in C++ using gtkmm for GUI.
Currently its functionality is more or less what GTG offers, but with
the advantage of fast graph algorithms (because I write in C++ compared
to Python) and very high level of modularity and maintainability (all
components are built on top of each other, so each one is a separate
useful piece of code).
I want to add Semantic Desktop support, but I'm not sure Gnome already
has a plan for a desktop-wide semantic database and
communication/integration. Many separate tools and projects exist, but
there's a lot of work to do. Maybe I should help there...
Thanks again :)

Hi,
I've been working for the past few months on a task management

Before I started it, I made a research. I couldn't find a
free-software
application which did everything I needed for my personal

This is really great! Out of curiosity what are you writing it in?
So I realized how close it is, and how simple. So before I
dive further
into my project, I'd like to as you a question:
Task management and sharing, collaborative decision making and
many
other relates tools can be extremely useful for a large
organization.
Including the Gnome project. Does the Gnome project already
use this
kind of tools? I've seen Gnome Live, the wiki pages,
discussions,
brainstorming, roadmaps, etc. but there's a new, higher level
of
software aided task and project management. Does the Gnome
project have
an interest to use such technologies?
I am not aware of anyone using these kind of tools. The marketing
team is the one that's been driving requests for more collaborative
tools especially from Andrea. We do have some need to do some project
management. I'm sure it would come in handy for those who run GUADEC
as well.
I don't know from a technical stand point what people use or if they
do any planning. But the non-coding folks would certainly see some
benefit.
If it does use them, I'd like to see. I don't want to
re-invent the
wheel (non-free existing tools don't count). If it doesn't
need any such
tools, I'd like to hear why. And if you are interested in such
tools,
I'd like to know. And especially hear about use-cases, feature
ideas,
etc.
I would encourage you to write it. I for one would use it, both
personally and professionally. Apps like yours would be a boon for
adoption in corporate offices.
I've actually wanted to write something to track the accomplishments
of people who work for me so that end the year I would have a nice
list of accomplishments. Something to think about as well. :-)

Thanks in advance,
