+# tagtime reimplementation
+
+What’s great about original perl tagtime?
+
+* timestamps are deterministic from the beginning (keep)
+* the tagging system should just work (tm)
+
+What’s the problem with the original perl tagtime?
+
+* it uses a bad, arbitrary file format -> sqlite3
+* the query window does not time out, so it’s easy to miss that it’s open (often hidden behind another window), and then the following pings might never appear)
+* There’s a bug with tags containing a `.` -> sqlite3
+
+What would be cool to have?
+
+* multi-entry mode (ping on phone and laptop and merge the replies eventually since they will apply to single timestamps)
+* simplifying reporting based on fuzzy matching & history
+* auto-generate nice time reports with hours for work items
