Slack bot to manage tasks

This Slack bot manages tasks and users/groups to do a desired task. When a user marks a task as done, he/she will be removed from the remaining users list.

Once a task has no remaining users, it will be deleted.

A task can be deleted even if there are remaining users.

You can use the bot both by an im or mention in any channel the bot is member.

Notifications might be configured for all remaining tasks or just for a desired ones. The notification may be in a channel (bot has to be member of the notification channel) or by a im to every remaining user.
