I have a honest and serious (but critical) question about HyperPlan: Why is it so ugly? This seems to be a major difference to other todo/planning tools—especially those that are popular on OS X. It looks like the calculator program I had to write in Visual Basic 5 in high school. You are clearly capable of doing the back-end work—most recently implementing graph data structures and algorithms for card relationships. But I think the front-end is really lagging behind. Maybe just switching the GUI framework (preferably native widgets) would help a lot? I’m sorry to say it but Hyper Plan looks like enterprise software. Some people might disagree and say it’s all about function. But then we would all be using lisp-machines…
