   Since Intervals is typically updated every four to six weeks it would be a bit involved to list everything in the works, but our goal is to communicate openly about some of the bigger items we have under development that should be completed in the near future. We will do our best to keep this discussion up to date. If you ever have any specific questions about the status of a feature request please feel free to shoot an email to support@myintervals.com.
   
   February 2011:
   

   • Invoicing - add ability to select tasks by task status when creating invoices based on actual work performed
   • RSS Feeds - global and project specific RSS feeds to get a running log/diary of activity
   • Hopper & Request Queue - add ability to have the project auto selected on new requests
   • Reporting - improved visual graphs

   
   Q1 2012:
   

   • Daily activity log email
   • Mobile - add milestones and projects
   • Calendar - add ability to have multi day events in addition to notes, tasks and milestones
   • Update all support videos and add additional videos
   • Basecamp™ data import

   
   Thanks again for all of the great suggestions on how to make Intervals the best time, task and project management service for small business.
