TODO's dependency on nested-Checkboxes -- 'org-enforce-todo-checkbox-dependencies'

TODO's dependency on nested-Checkboxes -- 'org-enforce-todo-checkbox-dependencies'

This is a tree from a hypothetical minimal org-file:
> **** TODO meet people [100%]
> 	 - [X] John
> 	 - [X] Jane




How can I achieve this:
 TODO-state should automatically change to DONE when I have checked-off both 'John' and 'Jane' ?

1. The manual showed me how to do this if John and Jane are also TODOs: using org-after-todo-statistics-hook.
I just can't find the check-box equivalent.

2. Google turned up 'org-enforce-todo-checkbox-dependencies' - but that is only half of what I'm looking for.


If this feature does not already exist, I'd like to suggest this as a useful enhancement.

Hi again,
This is regarding a TODO which has:
a. nested-checkboxes AND
b. a statistics-cookie.

Need help to achieve this:
 The TODO should auto-update/-change to 'DONE' when the stats-cookie hits '100%'.

I think you should be able to build this using org-checkbox-statistics- 
hook.  Nothing like this is built-in.  You can do it relatively easily  
when you are using subtasks instead of checkboxes, there are examples  
for this in the documentation.

Thanks for the info, Carsten.

Too bad the code doesn't already exist.. and I don't know *any* lisp!
Still, I'm trying to give this a shot...

Could you let me know:
1. Where/how are n-done and n-not-done defined/set? I'm trying to see if I can reuse the example from the documentation.
2. are 'c-on' and 'c-off' the checkbox-equivalents for the n-(not)-done variables? Where/how are *these* set?

FWIW, this attempt did not work for me (this would leave the cursor at the TODO):

(defun org-summary-todo-checkbox (c-on c-off)
  "Switch entry to DONE when all subentry-checkboxes are done, to TODO otherwise."
  (outline-previous-visible-heading 1)
  (let (org-log-done org-log-states)	; turn off logging
  	(org-todo (if (= c-off 0) "DONE" "TODO"))))
(add-hook 'org-checkbox-statistics-hook 'org-summary-todo-checkbox)

I get this error:
run-hooks: Wrong number of arguments: #[(c-on c-off) "ÃÄ!\210Å\211^X^YÆ
ÇU\203^S^@È\202^T^@É!*\207" [org-log-states org-log-done c-off outline-previous-visible-heading 1 nil org-todo 0 "DONE" "TODO"] 3 ("/Users/livin/.emacs.d/addons/org/org_stuff.elc" . 6903)], 0

Could you suggest a change in the above lisp, or point out what I'm doing wrong?

Yes, I recently started using this feature (picked it up from the documentation) to achieve this for subtask-TODOs ).
