For my uses, I would like the ability to manually submit time entries, ideally selecting a User, entering a Duration and a Description, and hitting Submit. Much like the way Basecamp does it, I would like to see this manual time entry form in both a Block form and a Table or List page. On the Table or List page, submitting one time entry would save and display that entry and immediately return a new line to submit the next entry. I'm not sure how I would like to handle Start time and End time values, as sometimes they are not necessary (I often prefix my description with "start:time - end:time :: ") yet your module works on the calculation of duration based on start and end time values.
If this is a possible feature we could work into this module, I would be happy to comp the interface. Let me know your thoughts, and once again, thank you for your work here.

Subscribing.
For me the shiny start/stop button doesn't reflect my way of tracking time.

That is indeed a need that I have been thinking about; I was envisioning to add this as a sub-module along with a couple other things I am working on. Stay tuned.

I would like to extend the need for manual time entries.
When seriously working in a team there is a need to
* track times from the past
* move times from node to node
* track times for coworkers (with permission)
It also would be nice to track WHEN the time was tracked not only the duration itself. Date modul could maybe used for it.
I would like to see a serious attempt to timetracking in drupal.
At the moment i play around with Comment as Nodes to have CCK fields in comments, date module plus cck integer to have time and duration and views + views calc to sum durations per node. Comments are important to enter a note per time entry. Right now this is the closest way to my needs.
cheers, Ronald

I am also interested in manual time entries as well.

Mostly I would just like to have the ability to edit or delete time that was tracked. Sometimes I accidentally leave the tracker on for too long and then am unable to go back and fix it without going into the database and making the change there. I only wish I knew how to write the code to submit a patch for this.

also interested.
