# This file lists items that have to be worked on.
# An entry for an item has the following tags:
# * Module: the concerned class or file
# * Location: a more precise location, e.g. a function
# * Description: a description of the item
# * Priority: the priority of the item, may be
#	deferrable:	of no/little relevance for OBOS R1 (to be future compatible:
#				the next release)
#	low:		of relevance for the next release, but not needed in the
#				near future
#	medium:		of relevance for the next release, needed in the near future
#	high:		of relevance for the next release, needed as soon as possible
#	urgent:		of relevance for the next release, needed yesterday, i.e.
#				some people depend on it being finished and can't continue
#				with their tasks otherwise
#
# * Requires: a list of prerequisites needed for the item to be worked on,
#			  omitted, when empty

             second time. At least the tests indicate, that the second call,
             though with force, does not have any effect at all.
