[Kde-pim] QtQuick ToDo API / Plasmoid

Sat Feb 22 14:13:14 GMT 2014

Hi,

I would say that the scope should be calendar as a concept and to pick TODO as 
the subtype to start working with.

After the work on the TODO related API is completed, there are two option for 
further work:
1) extend API for other subtypes, probably doing Event next
2) Provide UI that fully makes use of the TODO API

The proposal could have timelines for both options and feedback during the 
GSOC application phase can decide which one to go with.

Cheers,
Kevin
