I think gnome-shell does this. :) But there is a lot under "manage their projects" or "manage their tasks". Applications like Evolution do tasks, and others like Monodevelop support TODO features. It would be *much* more interesting [speaking as a *user*] to see more integration of these applications rather than yet-another-IDE or plugin scheme. Like how about having my IDE's projects appear as TODO folders in Evolution and the discovered TODO's as tasks? etc... Much of this can be accessed via D-Bus so any app can use it. There are first rate applications for many of these tasks you describe; integration will get you further than reinvention. For instance there are Eclipse plugins for everything you describe. But I don't want to wed myself to Eclipse, I want to use the real applications when I need the power. > I am more than willing to implement it.If the community approves of my > idea,I shall immediately commence designing the system. Open Source is a do-acracy. Those that contribute determine the direction. You don't need to ask for community approval. Do, and if it is quality work, people will pick it up. > I have attached a basic outline of the GUI.Please have a look. > Do let me know if any clarification is required
