Hi Alex! We were talking yesterday in IRC about looking at the core functions of gtg so that we can come up with use cases, since it might help us to answer some of the awesome questions you are asking. I mentioned that sometimes I am really confused by the different views in the UI. Even though the are supposed to just filter which tasks I see, sometimes I can't add subtasks because they make the tasks disappear, or other tragedies occur! > > I made a few new mockups, but i think i'm stuck at a point on which i need > a bit feedback, to move forward with other aspects of the applicaton, so i > have a few questions for you: > > - Is everyone ok with the colors? > On #gnome-hackers yesterday I heard part of a conversation about color in themes in GNOME. Benjamin Otte, who is one of the GKT maintainers, was talking about this conversation: l https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2012-January/msg00016.html I haven't gotten a chance to read it yet, but it sounded like color might be limited right now, so we (or you if you are willing to take it on) should look into this before we make firm plans about the color. Does that make sense? - Is everyone ok with the arrangement and wording of the primary toolbar > filters?

(2) > Lets' talk about these things moving forward if that is OK. I really like your approach to the toolbars, especially. There might be more iterations further down the line (are you OK with doing a lot of versions? I kind of hated it when I was working a lot on icons, but in the end I learned a lot from rethinking my ideas ad really having a design I was satisfied with.) Also, I wanted to ask you if you might be willing to do wire frames based on the use cases. It would be really helpful to me, and then we can start basic and add the detailed ideas that you have. - should we stick with the 'empty-task-approach? > Which part is this? - what do you think of the task design?

The symbol I see in Documents looks like go-previous-symbolic (circled in red in attached screenshot, let me know if you can't open it for some reason), but I'll ask Cosimo what he's using. I think we have a document-new-symbolic icon in progress, too (although there was some debate about using the "+" symbol for new in that context). I'll see if I can get it included so we can use it for new-task. Great work here! Let's try to set up an IRC meeting soon!
