Putting this on the discuss list rather then users as its more a 
discussion item.

Reviewing the offering of a local IBM partner I came across their demo 
of Team Workspace with is actually IBM Lotus Team Workplace; ref: 
http://www.lotus.com/products/product3.nsf/wdocs/ltwhome

What is of interest is the 'task' creation process. The user is 
presented with an optional field "is milestone" which is really cool. 
Here the user can assign a task as either an independent task or as a 
'milestone' in a series of tasks. To add this needed feature IMHO would 
not be to difficult in OGo from what I have read. What would be really 
cool is to have a clean method to attach such 'milestone' tasks to a 
specified project.

The option to include the task in the calendar is non interesting from 
this end due to clutter it can create. Personally I like to have these 
items not in the calendar unless the calendar is specific to 
tasks/projects time lines...now that would be cool..:)
