this is correct. my workaround is to "unhold" the Waiting context. when I print out my context lists - I can follow up on items I've delegated while on the run.
that said, I think this is a matter of semantics. It would be good to hear whether David Allen actually calls actions in the context of "waiting" a next action or not.
in other words, if I have a project to get my housing deposit back and I am waiting for my landload to get back to me about it, my next action (or lack of action which I now understand why it is debatable) is to wait for my landlord. it will become a next action for me at the point I feel my landlord has dropped the ball or I feel some more accountability over the issue.
It would be nice to not have to fumble around with the held/not held state of the context and just have a view/perspective where I don't see my waiting list and a view where I see everything (for next actions on the go and weekly reviews)
