Thanks for the pointers. From latest Org (master branch), you can now use `org-agenda-max-entries' either as a global option, or locally in each agenda view. See the docstring on how to use this option and its friends: org-agenda-max-effort org-agenda-max-tags org-agenda-max-todos org-agenda-max-effort might be particularily useful in TODO views. Let me know if this works for you. As for "grouping", I think this is more about setting agenda views, sorting options and agenda filters properly -- but I'm open to any idea on how to improve this (or to make it easier to set.) Thanks! -- Bastien
