relative date and time specification relative to only to "now"
(closed account) says:
It would be great to allow date and time specifications be relative to another date/time specification like
"4 days before 16 Nov 2009"
This would make it much more convenient to have templated lists to mail in for import for repetitive things (travel checklists for example).
More plastically, I could then create a file like
check passport is valid ^1 month before TRAVELDATE
buy tickets ^2 weeks before TRAVELDATE
check whether ^3 days before TRAVELDATE
etc
Next time I need to set up a travel, I would only need to create a list in RTM, replace "TRAVELDATE" with the actual date and send this to the import e-mail address
While of course it would be even better to have templates inherent in RTM, this would at least allow good templating through e-mail import.
