Changed all status to start with Uppercase letters, made 3 properties required.
Changed all the status to start with Uppercase letters because they are
publicly visible. Also changed required=True to False for created_by,
modified_by property to allow site admin to create and modify tasks. Also
changed required=True to False for history to allow history not to be written
until the task is published.

Takes two datetime objects and returns the time between d and now
as a nicely formatted string, e.g. "10 minutes". If d occurs after now,
then "0 minutes" is returned.
Units used are years, months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes.
Seconds and microseconds are ignored. Up to two adjacent units will be
displayed. For example, "2 weeks, 3 days" and "1 year, 3 months" are
possible outputs, but "2 weeks, 3 hours" and "1 year, 5 days" are not.
