[chandler-users] Fast question

Hi Everyone,

Since we last spoke, I have been creating collections for each of my
major projects, and using the colors to identify broad groups of
collections.  Although this doesn't work as well as it could (cf. my
conversation with the group in Digest v.10, #9, Items 3-9, particularly
Ms. Yin's response), it does work.

1. As you can imagine, I've now got a couple dozen collections that
have to be scrolled through. My question is this: How can I reorder my
collections as priorities and logical associations between collections
change?  Am I missing something really obvious?

2. As I enter my third month using chandler, I now have nearly two
hundred "later" tasks and events when I view them on the full
dashboard.  I think there needs to be some means of identifying the
collections to which each "later" task is assigned, visible in the
dashboard.  As you can imagine, tasks like "find that Holtzmann book
about the Nuer"  have a different meaning if they are affiliated with
the "Anth 101" collection versus the "Peoples and Cultures" collection,
but this distinction vanishes on the dashboard, limiting its utility.

3. I'd like to complement the project staff on the stability of this
software.  I've done many betas in the past - in another life, I ran an
IT department at a museum - and I can't believe how stable this project
seems.  Good job guys!
