Hey guys, I would like to work on this one, since I am really interested
in having this functionality. However, this is the first time I work on
an open source project so I would like to have your cooperation.

So far I have identified the followed cases:

* The user adds the reminder time and date. The program runs and shows the given notification. In this case, how the notification would be?
* The user adds the reminder for a past date. Probably a warning must be shown.
* Application is closed and then open when some notification dates have passed. In this case, I think it should show a box similar to the one used in evolution with the options of dismiss or postpone.

Bug description:
There are times when a task needs to be started at an specific time. Things like 'cook the dinner' are usually started one hour before dinner time, therefore I think it makes sense to have an option to notify that it is time to start a given task.
