+/* A Task is some piece of code that must be executed regularly, no matter whether
+ * the daemon has received any SMS.
+ * 
+ * Tasks exist in two flavours: normal and temporary.
+ *
+ * A normal task is one which lives throughout the execution of the smsdaemon instance.
+ * A pointer to a normal tasks can be retrieved via TaskManager::GetTask(std::string name), 
+ * and thus it must have a unique name.
+ *
+ * A temporary tasks is of a more short-lived nature. It behaves like a fire-and-forget piece of code.
+ * A temporary task can be created at any time by any piece of code. This creation must be dynamicaly 
+ * through the new() operator. When created it registers itself with the task manager, and here after any
+ * references to the task must be nulled.
+ * When the temporary task has done its work it must set the protected variale to true, and the 
+ * task instance will here after be deleted by the task-manager. 
+ * Temporary tasks does not need a unique name, and once created you cannot get a pointer to it again.
