Using Atom feeds would be... awesome. =A0Atom indeed has the potentia= l
to publish not just news about a web page project but things like,
say, Todo lists.


Agreed - my thoughts as well.
=A0
So /if/ Lotus Notes is capable of updating it's todo lists via Atom
the remaining question is: Which information must be present where in
the Atom document. =A0Could you take look in the Lotus Notes help (if
present) if there is any information on how to update todo lists by
Atom documents?

I've been searching all kinds = of things... converting todos, importing todos, syncing todos, etc. in an e= ffort to scrape up something of use to this idea, but haven't really fo= und anything. Probably stupid, but one interesting program (I actually ran = into this a ways back) is GCalDaemon which can do all kinds of things.
