Random Hacker Assigned: J. Random Hacker That general plan is good. Instead of "Assigned", let's call it "Undertaken". Here normally people choose to undertake a task, rather than having it assigned to them. Also, we should always list the date when the task was undertaken, so we can tell when something has gone on for a long time without getting done. Completed items should be moved to a different file, so they don't clutter the status of work remaining to be done.
