iTimeKeeper

The iTimeKeeper is very handy and a highly functional tool to manage meeting times effectively. It provides the ability to split a meeting into individual "topics" with specific durations for each topic. The tool computes the total meeting duration and a countdown timer helps the user keep track of remaining time for each topic as well for the entire meeting. Audio/visual clues help the user keep track of time to ensure meeting proceeds as planned.

Usage:
To add a new meeting, in the "Meetings List" window, press the "+" button or press "Edit" and select the "Add new meeting" row.
A template meeting with "Intro", "Main" and "Wrap-up" topics are automatically provided.
The meeting topics can be modified/deleted individually on selection.
New topics can be added by selecting the "Add new topic" row.
A temporary meeting name is provided based on the current time, which can be changed by the user.

To edit an existing meeting, select the meeting and press "edit" button.
Meeting name can be modified when modifying any topic of the given meeting.

Managing meeting
To start a meeting, press the "Start" button.
The countdown timer for the first topic will start.
The duration allocated for this topic and the remaining time are updated periodically.
Press the "Next" button when you are ready to move to the next topic.
The countdown timer for the next topic in the list for this meting will start.
This process continues until all topics for this meeting have been handled.

The user can "pause/resume" a topic to handle any interruptions
The countdown timer is stopped/restarted to support this option. The remaining time accounts for the "paused time".

The "Reset" button allows the user to restart a meeting.
Elapsed time information for all topics is deleted.

The "Start", "Pause", "Resume", "Next", "Done" and "Reset" buttons are automatically enabled and disabled based on the state of the topics and meeting.
