Hi

I don't know if it'll be interested someone but I want to share my use of MLO 
with the GTD methodology.

I use two root folders to distinct professional and personal stuff.

With this, I can easily use workspace to quickly switch between work / home 
tasks.

Inside these folders, I have one or two levels of area of focus.

And inside each AOF, I have project and tasks.

I use context for...context :) Each tasks have one context. I try to assign 
only one context for each task.

I use flag to set statut of a task or project : waiting for / someday maybe / 
on hold

I used text area but on desktop I find it's quicker to set flag with shortcut.

For the views, I have :

- inbox

(Clarify & organize)
- tasks without context
- tasks without energy
- tasks without minimum time

(Engage)
- focus : starred / due today or before
- active action
- active action by context
- active action by project
- active action by area

(Review)
- complete 30 days
- due next 30 days
- start next 7 days
- waiting for tasks
- someday / maybe tasks
- project list : group by flag
- project w/o next action
- empty project

That's my setup currently.

MLO is very powerful, I like the active action part to see only what's can be 
done right now.

I can see many ways to improve things :

- be able to disabled project name on tasks list. When you disabled hierarchy 
for a view, each task have project name in front if them. It will be nice to be 
able to not show that. I know a lot of people like to quickly see project but 
for me, when you write the right name for your task, you don't need to see 
project.

- a great improvement will be to add properties to a task / folder / project 
with some condition like the automated format.
For example, when the project doesn't have a next action, put this flag on it 
or add an area tag.

- more options about filter like limit to only see x tasks. Or a filter to see 
if a project have a subtask directly or inside one of his folder.

- be able to specify our own project statut like waiting for.

- on android, a button to add task on the quick setting bar.

- on windows, a quick capture tool to add stuff from anywhere with a shortcut 
(don't know if it's possible)

Sorry if I don't know options, I'm still on trial period :)

Thank for reading !
