Many people on this forum have written questions and ideas about how to handle actions where you are specifically awaiting a response from someone else before you can proceed further.

At first I wondered about this a lot too, but now I have taken the attitude that nothing is actually ever in "awaiting" status... it is always an action that I must do. So if I have given Joe my hammer and must wait for him to return it to me before I can assemble my dream mansion, then my action item in OF is something like "follow up with Joe to return hammer". I assign a certain start date and a certain end date to make sure that I follow up by a certain time if I have not received the hammer from him by that time.

I just thought I'd throw that out as a suggestion to other OF users.
