I would think you would look at how things work before commenting on them but to each their own.
The issue that folks complained about with shot and putter pal was that you had to go offscreen via the options to turn it on and off instead of just having the ability to click a button to turn it on and off which basically just allows you to save hits when you don't need it, like on a full drive.
It didn't matter to me, once the CC got it for free why save hits so I was fine with it as it was. I did complain about the notebook and I think that for those of us who use it instead of another program, sticky notes, etc. it is a good tool. Glad to see it fixed because it was useless when it changed from updating holes as you played, no one wants to have to click from hole 1 to the hole you are on after every shot.
In terms of the too do list, I leave that to WGT. I do know that you don't put things on a to do list based only on what you want done, you move things around that are easy fixes.
Maybe these items were quick fixes and got moved to the top due to that. I would hate to see WGT wait for 2 years to fix an issue that can be done with 15 minutes of programming just because it is #195 on the to do list.
