Description Stephan Matthiesen 2003-07-18 13:09:15 UTC 
It would be good and very helpful for planning if one could set a task
duration.

Also in the views the duration should be added together, so that you can
easily see if you are overplanning. For example I'm thinking of something like:

Tasks for today:
write report:    3:00 hours
prepare meeting: 1:30 hours
make coffee:     2:45 hours

Total:           8:15

It would be convenient if the end date for a task could then be
automatically set as start date + duration.

Thanks

length of a task - okay.
but start time and end time? what's the difference to an appointment then?

Bumping version to a stable release.

Sounds to me like bug #228454, thus I'm marking this as a duplicate of it.
