My own two cents: I think it's worth it for the members of both projects to check out the other, but my personal preference as a user is to keep both projects focused on what they do best. If Zim accumulates sophisticated task management features, this will eventually dilute its utility as a text database, diary, and outliner. Likewise (I say this without any experience) GTG might get diluted if it tries to get too rich-texty and linky. If you need complicated wiki-like features and you need well designed GTD workflow, perhaps the best solution is to use plugins to provide a clean transport path from one database to the other. For example, you could have a special INBOX page in Zim that is automatically pushed into the GTD INBOX view and removed from Zim, and any embedded hyperlinks are rewritten in transit so that clicking the link in GTD opens the appropriate page in Zim. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~gtg-user Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~gtg-user More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
