Hello,

I have seen examples of GTD or GTD-like workflows that use a project based
management system like below:

* Project 1
** Tasks
* Project 2
** Tasks
* Tasks
* Incoming

In my work I typically encounter a task that is common to multiple
projects. I haven't found any example of how to handle this in a GTD
workflow. I use tags to note a task that is common to multiple projects,
but would like the physical structure as well. Copying the same task into
multiple project hierarchies doesn't make much sense to me as I would need
to update the same task twice, unless there was some way to synchronize
them. Does anyone have references or ideas about how to handle this?

I tend to not have a project hierarchy but instead use tags to identify
projects so that a given task can belong to more than one project.
