The trigger hook functions take a proplist argument which provides a lot more information to the function than what is available to the after-todo-state-change functions (which take no argument): the latter can only know what the new state is going to be (through a global variable); as a result, they can be much simpler than the trigger functions, so if you don't need the extra info, after-todo is probably the way to go. -- Nick
