Main problem with office 2003 is that it can't reliably open docx and friends making it more or less non compatible with anything newer. Being able to open only docs you create yourself isn't very useful in a collaborative environ

What's even more outrageous is that the work has already been done, there's a PR with Django 5.1 support that works great. So the only thing missing 5 minutes of somebody's time deciding to step up and merge it. And still the

Hey cool app! One important feature (at least for me) would be to be able to enable reminders on specific days or times. For example I wanted to enable the "break every 30 minutes" timer only on weekdays from 9 to 5.
