On August 18 I added rotating assignment: a routine can rotate its owner among the people I choose. Chores are where it lives.
While I was in there I found a bug on the Roku. Finished one-off to-dos never dropped off the dashboard. There's no nightly clean-up job, and the iPhone only looked clean because it hides old completions on the phone itself. The Roku now follows the same rule: once the day a to-do was done has passed, it leaves the list.
