Also if the todo is displayed on due date in the calendar, what the hell is the difference between an event and a todo (except the icon)? You can simply create an event (instead of todo) and instead of completing it, you can simply delete it. From visual point of view there is no difference ...
IMHO the whole point is that it can (should) float until completed. That's what makes it different from everything else that is already supported in InfCloud and most other calendar tools.
+1. But it is not uncommon (at least in in our office) for 1 person to have tens of todo's on 1 day, finally resulting in uncompleted items after the due date. On top of that, managers tend to keep an eye on the todo's of their team. In such a scenario, the calendar view would be cluttered beyond imagination if you would display todo's in the (month) calendar view.
I don't see any really good representation of todo's, other than the vertical column, sorted by due date in which the items change color as the due date is getting closer (like Outlook, Evolution, Thunderbird etc are doing). The Gantt-chart idea also seems to have its merits, but only to represent a subset of todo's (f.e. all todo's in a specific project) and this is not the scope of InfCloud.
It's an interesting discussion in which these are my € 0.02.
