You have several things:
- add <things> to <mytask>
class MyTask extends Task { addThings(Things t)
- add <thing> to <things>
class Things extends DataType { addThing(Thing t)
- add text to <thing>
class Thing extends DataType { addText(String t)

>    <thing>yyy</thing>
>    <thing>zzz</thing>
>  </things>
></mytask>

>My class looks like:

>public class MyTask extends Task {
>  private String a;
>  private String b;
>  private List<String> things = new ArrayList<String>();

>  // setting and gettings for a and b ...
