> So, as a simple example, say you're moving homes.
I think you'd picked an example that doesn't really map well onto my
usual situation with a project, in two regards: First, more than half
of my projects are things where, once the project is completed, I
still want to have the notes easily accessible as a set, because I may
be doing the same task or a similar one within a year or two or may
want to share my notes with someone who is. That's (hopefully!) not
the case with moving.
And second, you've broken up the project of moving into a lot of
individual subprojects that will be completed at widely different
times, so it can make sense to get each one out of the way. More
likely, though, most of the individual subprojects of one of my
projects will be completed within the space of a few days, and only
after I have completed maybe 85% of my planning for all of them. It's
really not all that crucial to get the notes for Monday's schedule out
of the way on Tuesday morning, say, because by then my planning is
mostly done and I'm only going to be changing Tuesday's schedule if in
response to something unexpected.
Anyway, I'm happy with my own system: If a note within a project is
dealt with, I prefix the title with an omega (control-Z), which drops
it to the bottom of the alphabetical list where I don't have to keep
scanning over it while I work on the notes that are still active, yet
if I need to refer to it (and until the project is 100% complete, the
odds of needing to revisit *something* I thought was already finished
are pretty good), it's only a scroll away. That works just as well in
Yojimbo as elsewhere.
