Advice from mailing list

Today is timeline of approved list show. After wishing me good luck, I wrote down these last effort I made. If I failed, this maybe the last post about SoC. And I will send these data to the people who in charge of the knotes improvement project.
But I am still eagar to get this project, so WISH ME GOOD LUCK^_^

I send a survey to kde-linux and kdepim-user yesterday in order to find users thoughts of knotes’ categories.

Thanks to Grahma Cobb in kdepim-user. He not only give me useful suggest on categories, but also spent time on correcting my English. That’s very kind of him. I am appreciate him.
Cobb says he didn’t mind only one level category, and not mind no “new”/”delete” button. He suggested a very useful feature: filter for categories. He wrote:

I think the most important feature, however, is to be able to filter the notes view by category. For example, in Outlook I have notes which I want to keep but which I don’t want to clutter up the view normally. I have a category called “Obsolete” which I assign to the notes I don’t want to see and my normal default view only displays notes which do not have the Obsolete category.

I am thinking over this. This is a very useful feature I believe, but not clear in details. For example, how to show all notes? KNotes didn’t provide another view of notes. Maybe Kontact can help. Or you must change filter every time. But it’s really a good idea. I am willing to implement it.

Thanks to Jim Philips in kde-linux.
He suggested that KNotes/Kontact can be associated with GTD, a influential time management technique
formalized by David Allen. Last year, there is a SoC KDE project called GTD,
targeted on “make Kontact much more efficient and comfortable as “the system you can trust””. And he provide MonkeyGTD as a example for GTD Application. I also found some articles on GTD, which is very helpful for understanding.
