I also have problems and I think it is because the developer has
fixated on other implementations of GTD and has not thought about how
their own design can best implement it
Actually, 15 years ago when the first version of MLO was created in the
age of Palm organizers, GTD existed, but was not yet widely known. The
GTD hype only started a few years later.
But I think MLO is very well suited for the GTD method. You just need to
decide how you want to map the MLO features to the GTD concepts (you
made some good suggestions here!) and then use everything in a
consistent way (I'm usually struggling with that).
3. Use the TAGS field on the right properties for the GTD types
"Someday/Maybe" and "Wait/Due from others"
For me "Someday/Maybe" is everything that does not have a goal or a
start/due date, so I don't even need to enter anything specifically for
these tasks. And it's easy to create a view for them. I implemented
"Wait" with a context (I also have special contexts for persons I
frequently delegate to).
The tabs that allow Workspaces seems to be underdeveloped. I cannot
select particular folders to appear in a workspace.
Actually, you can create a view that filters certain folders (combined
with OR), and then assign that view to a workspace. A much simpler
solution is to use the zoom feature. You can have workspaces with preset
zoom on different folders.
One area also that is weak is review. It needs a user-customisable
tickler feature to allow selection for the future based on start date
or due date with or without lead time . For example, I would like to
be able to see what is scheduled for next month but the rules do not
allow this to be algorithmically described
That should actually be possible with
"StartDateTime", "in the next ? months", "1".
Finally, like many GTD implementations it forgets appointments by
assuming these are in calendars
It helps that you can now sync with Google calendar. But actually, GTD
does not care about the "hard landscape" (the appointments in the
calendar), it cares more about what you do when you are "free".
