Since version 1.1, the To Do List module includes a few module_invoke() calls that other modules can catch via one of the following hooks.
When you first install the module, I wouldn't be surprised if you'd want to create a To Do List item right away and then assign the task to one or more users.
It won't work.
Before users can be assigned a To Do List item, you must give them permission to be assigned to such an item. This is done in the usual permission place: Administer » User management » Permissions. You may also want to create a new role of people who deal with To Do List items.
Actually, the To Do List module comes with many permissions so you may want to ...
Go to Administer » Site building » Modules and click on To Do Block to install the Block extension for the To Do module.
The following are screenshots demonstrating the capabilities of the To Do List module.

This page documents the usage of the To Do List module to end users (i.e. not how to install and setup the module, but how to create To Do List items, share them, mark them started/finished, etc.)
For administrative information check out the To Do List module help.
Global settings are found under Administer » Site configuration » To do list (admin/settings/to_do).
Only To Do List administrators can edit the Global Settings.
Install the module as usual, generally under your sites/all/modules folder. On a Unix command line, you can use the tar tool like this:
cd sites/all/modules tar -xf to_do.tar.gz
Then go to Administer » Site building » Modules and enable the To do list module.
Once installed the module offers several permissions under Administer » User management » Permissions (admin/user/permissions). These are include permissions similar to the Node permissions and some others. All the permissions are explained below.
Additional permission granularity can be obtained with the use of other modules as defined in the Extend To Do List.
The permission functions properly, no issue in that regard. However, the name of the permissions should be using "to_do" with an underscore to be 100% compatible
The To Do List module can be extend with the use of other modules. This page describes such extensions and what you can do with them.
You may want to allow more people to work on your To Do List with better granularity in regard to who can edit which issue (instead of all of them) and who can view issues.
There are two modules you can use for this pupose. One lets you choose based on a set of taxonomy terms and the other lets you choose based on available roles.
In order to use a taxonomy with a set of terms, use tac_lite1
