+# Task management guidelines
+
+* Create the task in appropriate "Product" section with appropriate
+  "Component" section. Most code tasks generally use "Libre-SOC's
+  first SOC".
+* Fill in "Depends on" and "Blocks" section whenever appropriate.
+* Choose the correct task for a budget allocation. Usually the parent
+  task is used.
+* Choose the correct NLnet milestone. The best practice is to check
+  the parent task for a correct milestone.
+* Assign the budget to the task in "USER=SUM" form, where "USER"
+  corresponds to your username and "SUM" corresponds to the actual
+  budget in EUR. There may be multiple users.
+* When the task is completed, you can submit an RFP.
+* Once the RFP is sent, notify Luke (lkcl), and update the "USER=SUM"
+  field: "USER={amount=SUM, submitted=SDATE}". The SDATE is entered in
+  YYYY-MM-DD form.
+* Once the task is paid, update "USER={amount=SUM, submitted=SDATE}"
+  to "USER={amount=SUM, submitted=SDATE, paid=PDATE}". The PDATE is
+  entered in YYYY-MM-DD form, too.
