> Aida
> Sample application is an address book

> Iliad web frame work
> No application (on the web site); not checked in the code
> ToDo List application
> 1) Do for all frameworks what is described in the HPI book (several

> 2) Extend it that several users may have a common todo list where
> everybody can add todo items and mark them as done (with a remark

> as done)
> 3) Extend it that todo items may be assigned to a user and offer views
> so that people see the todo items assigned to them
> 4) Add a glossary module (e.g. list of abbreviations and expansions);
> people may use special terms in the todo list items; they should
> appear as hyperlinks or have a hover help explanation (the glossary
> term when hovering over the term).
> 5) Add a chat module so that people can meet and  discuss about todo
> items and move assignments and priorities around.
