+\section{News}
+With version~0.7 there has been a potentially breaking change: the \code{tasks}
+environment previously provided by \ExSheets has been extracted into a package
+of its own. This does not change any syntax \emph{per se}. However, if you used
+custom settings then you'll probably run into some problems. The options for the
+environment are no longer set with \cmd{SetupExSheets} but with \cmd{settasks}.
+Also the object that is used for the list template and its instances has been
+renamed from \code{exsheets-tasks} into \code{tasks}.
+
+What's probably even more of a breaking change is a syntax difference of the
+\code{tasks} environment: the optional argument for the number of columns is
+\emph{no longer set in braces but parentheses}. This is deliberate as it
+reflects the optional nature of the argument better and is consistent with the
+syntax of \cmd{NewTasks}, too.
+
+Additionally the labels of the list got an additional offset of \code{1ex} from
+the items which will lead to slightly different output. In some cases this might
+actually lead to the most annoying changes. In this case say
+\cmd{settasks}{label-offset=0pt} which should cure things again.
+
+I am very sorry for any inconvenience! I am trying to keep such changes as minimal
+and rare as possibly. However, it is not always avoidable when a package is new
+and still a child. It will grow up eventually.

-The environment has some options, namely these:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Option[tasks]{style}{<instance>}\Default{}
-   Choose the instance to be used. Read more on this in section~\ref{sec:exsheets-tasks}.
- \Option[tasks]{label}{<label specs>}\Default{}
-   Sets a custom label. The letters \code{tsk} are replaced with the task-counter.
-   An optional argument directly following these letters specifies the counter format:
-   \code{1}: \cmd{arabic}, \code{a}: \cmd{alph}, \code{A}: \cmd{Alph}, \code{r}:
-   \cmd{roman} and \code{R}: \cmd{Roman}.
- \Option[tasks]{label-width}{<dim>}\Default{3ex}
-   Sets the width of the item labels.
- \Option[tasks]{before-skip}{<skip>}\Default{0pt}
-   Sets the skip before the list.
- \Option[tasks]{after-skip}{<skip>}\Default{0pt}
-   Sets the skip after the list.
- \Option[tasks]{resume}{\default{true}|false}\Default{false}
-   The enumeration will resume from a previous \code{tasks} environment. In order
-   to use this option properly you shouldn't mix different \code{tasks} environments
-   that both count their items.
-\end{beschreibung}

-Now the same list as above but with three columns and a different label:

+\section{Motivation}\secidx[Motivation]{\Tasks}[tasks]
+\noindent\changedversion{0.7}Originally \Tasks has been an integral part of
+\ExSheets. However, users told me that it indeed could be useful to have it as a
+standalone package not having to load the whole \ExSheets beast just for having
+the \code{tasks} environment available. Since I agree with this the environment
+has been extracted into a package if its own, \Tasks.
+
+The reason for the \code{tasks} environment is an unwritten agreement in German
+maths textbooks (in (junior) high school, especially) to organize exercises in
+columns counting horizontally rather than vertically. That is what \code{tasks}
+primarily is for. If you don't need this feature you better off using traditional
+\LaTeX{} lists and the \paket{enumitem} package for customization.
+
+\section{Requirements}\secidx[Requirements]{\Tasks}[tasks]
+\Tasks requires packages \paket{l3kernel} ,\paket{xparse}, \paket{l3keys2e},
+\paket{epic}, \paket*{cntformats}\footnote{Part of the \ExSheets bundle, see
+part~\ref{part:cntformats}}, \paket{xtemplate} and \paket{environ}.
+
+\section{How it works}
+The \code{tasks} environment is similar to a list like \code{enumerate} but not
+the same:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item The first difference: there is no pagebreak possible inside an item but
+   only between items.
+ \item The second difference: the enumeration default is a), b), c) \ldots
+ \item The third difference: there is a split at \emph{every} occurrence of the
+   item separator. For this reason the default separator is not \cmd*{item} but
+   \cmd{task} so it is unique to this environment only.
+ \item The fourth difference: the \code{tasks} environment cannot be nested. You
+   can, however, use an \code{itemize} environment or something in it.
+ \item The fifth difference: verbatim material cannot be used in it. You'll
+   have to use \cmd*{string}, \cmd*{texttt} or \cmd*{detokenize}. If this won't
+   suffice then don't use \code{tasks}.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\begin{beschreibung}
+ \Umg{tasks}[<options>]{\unskip\da{<num of columns>} \cmd{task}\ldots}
+\end{beschreibung}
+Let's see an example:
+\begin{beispiel}[code only]
+ Some text before the list.
+ \begin{tasks}
+  \task \sample
+  \task \sample
+  \task \sample
+ \end{tasks}

+\end{beispiel}
+Some text before the list.
+\begin{tasks}
+ \task \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \task \sample
+\end{tasks}
+And also some text after it.
+ 
+The environment takes the optional argument \ma{<num of columns>} with which the
+number of columns used by the environment is specified.

+   Sets the width of the item labels.
+ \Option{label-offset}{<dim>}\Default{1ex}
+   \sinceversion{0.7}Sets the offset, i.e., the distance between label and item.
+ \Option{label-align}{left|right|center}\Default{left}
+   \sinceversion{0.7}Determines how the labels are aligned within the label-box

+ \Option{resume}{\default{true}|false}\Default{false}
+   The enumeration will resume from a previous \code{tasks} environment. In order
+   to use this option properly you shouldn't mix different \code{tasks} environments
+   that both count their items.
+\end{beschreibung}
+These options can also be set using a setup command:

+\end{beispiel}

+\section{Available Instances}\label{sec:tasks:instances}
+When you use the package option \key{more} of the \Tasks package or load \ExSheets
+with the \key{load-tasks} option there are currently three additional instances
+for the \code{tasks} object available:
+\begin{description}
+ \item[itemize] uses \cmd{labelitemi} as labels.
+ \item[enumerate] enumerates the items with 1., 2., \ldots
+ \item[multiplechoice] a --~well~-- `multiple choice' list.

+\section{New Tasks}\secidx[Own Environments]{\Tasks}[tasks]
+It is possible to add custom environments that work like the \code{tasks} environment.
+\begin{beschreibung}

+   Define environment \ma{<name>} that uses \code{<separator>} to introduce a

+  * Second Task
+ \end{done}
+\end{beispiel}
+Although this might seem handy or even nice I strongly advice against using
+something different than a command sequence. Remember that the items will be
+split at \emph{every} occurrence of the separator. So in order to use the
+separator (here for example for a starred variant of a command) within an item
+it has to be hidden in braces. This is avoided of you use a command sequence
+which even doesn't have to be defined.
+
+Let's say you want a \code{choices} environment that has three columns in its
+default state. You could do something like this:
+\begin{beispiel}
+ % preamble:
