This is very well thought out and quite informative. I agree the iCalendar scheme for recurrence sounds overly ornate. I definitely think recurrence is something we want to see supported in gtg, but I agree with the assessment that modeling it after the iCalendar scheme would not be a clear win. Regarding the duration field, if we support that in gtg I was thinking we should also have a "default duration" that is assumed when not otherwise specified. All of us probably have different ideas of how long a "task" is, but we're probably mostly consistent across our own tasks, so this would save having to specify durations on most tasks. It's also interesting to think that, knowing the duration per task, and number of tasks, you could quite directly figure out when you have too many tasks scheduled on a given day. Mmm, that could be handy...
