Yes, you're right Bedrudin. I have made a decision, as you have suggested, to stop inquiring because MLO as it stands now has a lot more features than many personal task managers already have so I can be patient. Good point. On Friday, June 29, 2012 10:22:34 PM UTC-4, Bedrudin wrote: > > I r

I'm having a little bit of trouble with this thread. First of all, I only looked in the thread because it mentioned a version 4.0 and I hadn't heard anything about that. I thought I was going to see a thread created by Andrey and I certainly didn't think that my "view" would be counted as yet
