I am wondering if it might be possible to allow check boxes in table
columns. This I think might be useful to control how how many people
have done certain steps eg in the preparation of a conference. I'd
expect this feature to work just like in item lists. Anexample of
such a list might be:
| Name | announcement made [2/4] | hotel booked [2/4] |
|-------+-------------------------+--------------------|
| Bill | [ ] | [X] |
| Jane | [X] | [X] |
| Jim | [X] | [ ] |
| Nancy | [ ] | [ ] |
Might this be something worth implementing?
As always, many thanks to Carsten Dominik for this great mode.

Rainer,
please have a look at the Bastien's column view tutorial:

section:"Adding summary-types for some properties "

Please
1) As written in the bottom of the mail:
Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
2 ) Please, read more carefully Bastien's tutorial [1],
[1] e.g. what does it mean "%9Approved(Approved?){X}"
and also be so kind to have a look at Chapter 7 of the
manual, specifically at paragraph 7.5!
Everything is clearly explained.
However this seems to be a solution for your question:
