1. Control-Backspace in an entry deletes from the cursor to the beginning of the text. I had previously hacked up custom binding for Control-u, but this is bound by default. Thanks Emmanuele for pointing this out. Update: as proof that my fingers are still using C-u, Control-Backspace actually deletes a word and not the entire entry.
2. Middle-clicking on a scroll bar will move directly to that point, instead of moving towards that point by a page. Very useful, I'm glad Mitch mentioned this in a bug.

• Add a menu bar with new features like Remove Completed.
• Mark the current day on the calendar popup
• Stop duplicate groups appearing in the task editor (#239)
• Only count uncompleted tasks for the titlebar

Speaking of which, now that more applications are using this property, I should get around to extending the Screen Resolution setting in GNOME to include a colour profile selector...

We also need more Lightning Talks. A Lightning Talk is simply a five minute presentation, so typically in an hour slot there will be ten or so talks on different topics. They are easy to present (being so short) and fun to watch (as there is a wide range of topics covered). They are a great way to announce a new project, demo something very cool (IIRC, David Reveman got a standing ovation when he demod Compiz in Stuttgart), or give a progress report. Submit your lightning talk today!

We need talks about desktop integration, embedded systems, large deployments, and profiling. We need tutorials on using GNOME from Python, or Perl, or C#. Sessions explaining how to use a certain application, or why a new library being developed is the best thing since sliced bread. Scheduled hackfests to fix bugs in certain applications, and discussions to work out complicated problems we have.

Basically, we need you. Propose your session for GUADEC now!

Sources are available on the OpenedHand Projects site, and packages for Ubuntu Edgy, Ubuntu Feisty, and Debian Sid are in my repository. Adam Williamson has also packaged Tasks into Mandriva Contrib.

Thanks to Andrew Kerr who mailed me an initial packaging, although I think I did end up rewriting about 80% of it.

I may give up actually coding in the future and just ask for things to be done on my blog.

Translators, the gauntlet has been thrown. Tasks isn't in GNOME SVN which is a pain for you I know (though I do have a cunning plan for that...) but the SVN is publically available. I'll greatly welcome each and every translation.
