Hi Adam,
Thanks for the reply.
Actually,what I have in my mind is integration.I'll be using existing
components and integrating them seamlessly into a smooth,convenient
environment.
The TODO tasks point you made is very interesting.I'll definitely keep it
in mind.
I shall set up a sync system between IDE and TODO,evolution.
Please let me know if I should proceed further.
Atri

</div>I think gnome-shell does this. :)<br>

But there is a lot under "manage their projects" or "manage their<br>
tasks". Applications like Evolution do tasks, and others like<br>
Monodevelop support TODO features.<br>
<br>
It would be *much* more interesting [speaking as a *user*] to see more<br>
integration of these applications rather than yet-another-IDE or plugin<br>
scheme. Like how about having my IDE's projects appear as TODO folders<br>
in Evolution and the discovered TODO's as tasks? etc... Much of this<br>
can be accessed via D-Bus so any app can use it.<br>
<br>
There are first rate applications for many of these tasks you describe;<br>
integration will get you further than reinvention.<br>
<br>
For instance there are Eclipse plugins for everything you describe. But<br>
I don't want to wed myself to Eclipse, I want to use the real<br>
applications when I need the power.<br>

</div>Open Source is a do-acracy. Those that contribute determine the<br>
direction. You don't need to ask for community approval. Do, and if it<br>
is quality work, people will pick it up.<br>
