Project Description of Target System

The Scooby2beDue To-Do List will support basic to-do list functionality. In addition to adding and removing reminders of tasks that the user may need to accomplish, it will also allow the inclusion of the date that each item is due, and setting a priority for each one. The list may then be sorted and diplayed based on priority (the default), due date or creation date. The applet will also support the concept of "groups", where list items may be separated into logical subsets or groups and then displayed sorted based on group. List items may be edited at any time to correct typos or to reflect changes in circumstances.

Known Problems

WARNING: BE PATIENT. All interactions with the ToDo manager have some sort of visual cue to let you know when they have completed. Doing anything to the applet (including resizing Netscape's window) may cause the java interpreter to fail. In particular, the login process is susceptible to failure due to excessive user input.
