Here is the task summary for Monday, August 24, 1987.

Format: Left-hand column is priority/release requirement ('A' = alpha, 'B' =
beta, 'R' = release, '+' = strictly wishlist item).  Next column to the right
is status: 'D' = done, 'T' = testing, 'W' = working on it, ' ' = pending, 'I'
= just an idea right now, 'N' = we decided not to do it at all, 'C' = comment,
'P' = pilot error, 'R' = repeat.  Next comes the initials of the people
responsible for the item, then the item tag number, and finally the item
itself.
