WIth org-gtd, I believe World Peace could become just a project and not stuck as a Vision. I wonder if David Allen one day will admit there is a piece of software that is able to handle all the ins and outs of the GTD system and that software is Emacs. Excellent work.

Let me congratulate you for this fine work. I've been following your org-gtd package since 2021and I'm extremely surprised by the degree of progress this shows. Thanks for your work, it seems very mature and extremely useful. Besides the software itself, thanks also for this video which is a very clear demo of use-case features. I'm also very glad to see you have left a lot of room for customization to the end user, which is not always the case for productivity-oriented software. Thanks again and please, keep up the good work.

Thank you for your kind words! Ever since the first release, org-gtd has found a surprising degree of popularity, even in its deeply limited shape, and I found that the feature requests were simply too much for me to understand and implement. It's been a long effort to get the project shipshape, from project management, to continuous integration, to figuring out minimum viable version of emacs to support, to providing a better emacs-like experience, etc. I have still further, bigger ideas for where I want it to go, but I am limited by .. Well.. Time available to work on it :)

Thanks for this! It's very cool! Question: I was following along with you with the capturing, clarifying, etc. examples/exercises and I noticed that for you, in the video, and me, at home, after every function ran (especially when a refile happened), the corresponding buffers would get updated; however, the buffers would not get automatically saved. Hence, I assume this is a normal thing. So, that I don't have to manually save each affected buffer, is there a config item to set to make this happen? (I watched to the end of the video to see if you would mention this. At any rate, nice software, man!)

Thank you, I'm glad you like it! I originally didn't want to auto-save, and my hands are used to `C-c s` to do an interactive save-all-buffers, but I think the software is now stable enough that we can probably add that feature now :)

This is looking really great :-). One question: How do you deal with nested projects? (In your "buy a house" example, what happens when the "unpack stuff" task grows subheadings like "unpack basement," "unpack kitchen," etc).

Thank you! There isn't a great way to handle this (this is me easing you into "there''s no way to handle this"). Since right now projects can only exist as sequential tasks, I would probably just go into the org file itself and expand the single heading into as many headings as I now see fit. From an operational perspective, all you care about is the one next action anyway, so none of the rest of the headings will show up for you, you only need to make sure the correct next one shows up in the agenda view. Handling projects intelligently is something I've been pushing back for years because of how complex the topic is; so far other than folks who would like to be able to do some tasks in any order, I haven't had too many complaints about the current shape (which I think makes enough sense anyway) but I'm slowly gathering material and coding ideas, snippets, and tools, to allow for something just as flexible as emacs is (which may be the final nail in the coffin of my sanity, but what can you do).
