Suppose I have tasks that look like this:

Administer Web Server
- install security patch #123
- add pages for marketing
Adminster Database
- run backups every night
- weekly review of queries
Administer App Server
- write new credit card interface
- test database performance

Of course the subitems are nicely categorized into projects or single actions.

Originally I set the high level items ("Adminster...") as projects. But since these are ongoing task (hopefully forever, or we'll be out of a job!), it doesn't seem they are tasks that will ever end.

So, I'm thinking that maybe these Adminster lines might be better off as folders?

I'm a bit of a GTD newbie, and not really understanding (obviously!) how the folders fit in with the concept of projects and subprojects.

Any clues appreciated, many TIA!!
