	I believe there was also a post about this.

Does he mean hierarchical groupings of tasks?

NE (5/8/01 9:21:37 PM) GDA replies:
I believe yes. I am but the conveyor of information that DT obtained from JK. 
All I did was
create the prs<g> - no value add.

I believe I saw a newsgroup post by rational asking for child tasks and it may 
provide additional
info & I think kevinh may also have seen it.

If you need additional info we can go back to them and ask.

	The task list does not support child tasks.
	Moving to inactive.

KH (8/13/2001 4:29:33 PM)
	Input for tasklist improvements

This is an interesting enhancement. However, there are no free cycles to commit 
to doing this for next release. I have increased the priority to make sure it 
does not get lost in the "resolve later" category.

There are marker types that have a parent attribute supplied by Core.
