D3- Can a project be a next step action?

2009-11-25 Thread Jonas Thomas
I've been really getting in to D3 and Gtd and it really works for me.
The way I've been using it is to put a prefix on the project title.
0.H
1.W

Where the numeric represents the six level model of review my work.
0 = Runway
5 = Life

This works out well with my reviews, since the stuff that needs
immediate attention is at the top of the list and the life projects
are at the bottom
Anyway I've been running into issues at my 3-4 level
projects.  These goals tend to be pretty big and they really lend
themselves to be busted up into sub-projects.

I've played around with listing projects within projects, but with
mixed results.  I run into a situation where the big projects needs
to get a sub-project done (which I can list) before I can do this
action.  The problem is that the software apparently ignores the
project as the next step and goes to the next action which can't be
done until the project is done.

Hmm I wonder if I can define a tiddler as a project and an action?
Hopefully this doesn't send me to some type of recursion hell

I've been playing around with defining a tiddler as a project and created
and action called a @sub-project and it seems to work.

I had a the combo action tiddler tagged as:
action @sub-project project important
and it seems to work ok

I originally had this tagged as:
project action @sub-project important  and I think I ran across what might
be considered a bug.

Review=Summary review picked up the project find

But  Projects= Important did not.  Apparently the tag needs to be project
important sequence for it to pick up.


Also action @sub-project project important seems to be the next step only
if it comes directly before a open action.  If there are closed actions
between the sub-project and action, the action appears to be the next step.

Does this make sense to those of you who know this stuff inside and out?
