Okay I was playing with it. I like how it understands what I write/type (at the end of the task).
I would appreciate additional notifications, via sms or Instant message, twitter. Also, it would be nice to reply to the message and then mark it as done.Krill and other checkvist developers, thank you for you great product.
I hope you can implement RSS soon.Ray

I agree that DUE dates should be optional and also:
Please have "tickler" capabilities, where it can remind you of a task that was set as a reminder. This is not the due-date, but the reminder to review the task and look at it.today I use www.reqall.com for my reminders, but would prefer if checkvist leveraged their tool. for instance ReQall reads my entries and sends me IM, email, SMS to remide me of a task. (e.g. "remember Dentist appointment JAN 25, 2010 3:00PM" | reQall will set up the reminders just from that) I don't need to click on a menu to set anything up.
reqall works with evernote in an interesting fashion so they collaborate whne it makes sense (just an FYI).
checkvist+ user
thanks,Ray

Please keep this optional - the very last thing I want is to have my lists cluttered up with dates. The simple re-ordering that already exists is plenty for me.

I'm with the crowd here on: yes this is important. Yes, it needs to be optional. Yes, it should be per task.
I would be in favor of CV enforcing that child tasks could not due later than parent tasks. I think that would subtley add a powerful PM concept while keeping things simple. A parent task could take NO date with children that did have dates assigned.

Back again. I was talking up Checkvist this week at a conference I was at in Portland. Lots of the people were very impressed with the UI, but like me would love to see tagging and due-dates/reminders implemented. How's this coming along? Is it on the development track?

I love the changes that have been coming out of Checkvist lately. But they all seem to be collaboration based. I would love to see some additional features like this being implemented. I see due dates is "planned". Any comment on a release date?

I agree with James Moore - being reminded of things you didn't accomplish "on time" is just negative. I think tagging would be more universally useful than assigning a date. Then you could use priorities, contexts, etc. in the tag field.

Yes, of course it should be optional. Is there any progress on this? I haven't stopped by in a few weeks, but I am still hopeful for checkvist.
Thanks!

I agree with James Moore, the due dates should be ONLY optional!

James Moore commented
if you "roll" GTD, there is no hard and fast rule requiring due dates on GTD style lists. If implemented I think this should of course be optional. Getting into calendaring and such is just going to make Checkvist needlessly complicated IMO.
I used to use Todoist and found the idea of it having ot constantly remind of just how far overdue each item was to be "demoralizing" (and there is/was no way to turn this off that I could find).

Per task for sure!

Due dates per task
-

@Kirill Maximov: My vote would be to have the due-date be a per-task attribute visible to everyone who sees the checklist.

Per task.
What about just "associating" a task to a date?
I'd be happy to drag a task into a calendar, and then be able to move it around ("I'll do this today... maybe tomorrow... I'll drag it to next week"), eventually having it exported into my Google Calendar, then I can monitor the tasks I've already done and need to do. -
Jason Shum commented
it should be something like todoist where you can press tab and input the date it should be done by. that sort of thing
-
leshchenko commented
and i strongly oppose introducing recurring tasks - i guess calendar apps are much better suited for that
