Description Peter Stibrany CLA 2009-01-18 04:53:43 EST 
I would like to synchronize task estimate from repository.
Unfortunately, while AbstractTask class has setEstimatedTimeHours
method, it is not part of ITask interface, so I cannot set estimate
without resorting to hacks (not only casting down to AbstractTask, but
accesssing it in the first place, as it is internal).

Is there specific reason why this is so? Would it be possible to add
setEstimatedTimeHours into ITask interface?

Looks like this is related (duplicate?) to bug 173880, which talks about synchronization of estimates with repository.
