+A critic is a part of ArgoUML 
+that runs as a separate asynchronous process 
+to check the quality of the model.
+Once a flaw has been found, it creates a so called critique.

+        <para>
+A todo item created by a critic. 
+The critic creates a critique to communicate 
+the details of the dicovered model flaw to the user, 
+e.g. it explains the reason why this is a bad design.
+The critique also allows the user to start a wizard 
+to automate fixing the problem.
+There are also todo items 
+that are created by the user - 
+these are not called critique.

+        <para>
+          A "to do" item presents feedback to the designer 
+          about activities to be performed on the model.
+          This feedback can be automatically generated 
+          (by the critics), or by the designer himself.
+          The use of a "to do" list fits in ArgoUML's use 
+          of cognitive features - see the 
+          Robbins Dissertation on ArgoUML for more details.
