## For how many years have you used Org?

## What about delegated actions of a project? Do they get moved to the delegated heading and moved back to the project when finished?

-### They stay where they are, because they belong to the project. Org-edna will automatically mark it as NEXT when its time comes. The user can mark it as WAIT easily through the agenda. I would like an org-gtd command to queue up "mark as WAIT", "add the DELEGATED\_TO property", and "schedule a check-in time", but I haven't yet done the research to figure out a clean integration of such a custom action with the agenda view.

## Are you only using linear next-task-method or do you use org-edna to mark tasks even in other projects as NEXT?

+Currently I only use linear next-task-method, for two reasons. One is a technical reason, another one is part of my current approach to GTD:
- I haven't yet had a reason to consider that, say, a project might block another project, or that an action might block a project - possibly I haven't tried to do complex enough things in my life yet, and so I've always been able to simplify what I had to do into linear projects, even if it was a simple linear project with a last task of "create a new project based on what I've learned"

## How do you make use of incubated items? Do they show up in the agenda for the whole day? That would be distracting, I guess.
-
-### I have a block of time, every morning, dedicated to processing the inbox and seeing what's on my plate for the day. I would use this time to decide what to do with the incubated item: incubate it again, make it into a project, discard it, etc. My "incubate" file has a bunch of top-level headlines like "To Read", "To Watch", "To Eat", "To Visit", etc.

- That sounds similar to SOMEDAY-list, but processed on per-item basis. If you decide to re-incubate an item, how to you chose the new time?
