Works/To do

---

On this page you can get a "To Do" list and a tasks pool of the project. The "To Do" list is not connected to the time ranks, but it is structured by subsystems. The "To Do" list and pool are provided to represent the general development picture, and to post notes for the developers' examination. The developers can append, apply and note the tasks for themselves.
