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. --=20 Prof. Dr. Rainer Thiel Dekan Philosophische Fakult=E4t 07737 Jena, Germany (EU) r.thiel@uni-jena.de
