If you have to say it officially I will too:
1. The only change in your pages are class=todo to class="todo" and with other 
class name (now you can see it for your self)
2. I didn't lay ground rules that any thing written that violates these rules 
will not be accepted or anything, write what you know, and if I will be bored 
again I will patch a fix....

It changes nothing for the machine, my reasons are:
1, It's good practice
2. It's future compatible with XHTML forcing this way, yet HTML allows and 
RECEMENDS this way
3. Ground rules for web programming fallow the spec as close as you can and be 
prepared to accept as many misstakes as you can, this patch fills part one


Dimi, I still don't get you, what you are saying is:
changing class=todo to class=done is considerably easier then
changing class="todo" to class="done"

If it only look the same to me then I am very sorry, I must have missed 
something........
