sub projects inside projects or nested projects

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I think bigger projects are better managed if they are split up into sub 
projects.  This helps 
better management of projects as sometimes we later realise that some actions 
are actually 
projects as they will require more than one action item to complete them. Under 
such 
situation it would be really helpful if actions can be converted into projects, 
or sub projects. 
And these sub projects should shown only under the parent project.

Agreed - sub projects are a good idea (along with multiple context)

I just add "projectname/subproject" as a new project when needed. It's not 
perfect
but at least the name is always visible and it doesn't clutter the interface any
more. Works for me at least.

Nesting sub-projects are essential for me. I request that this item be 
escalated to a high priority Defect.
It is not intellectually manageable to conceive of large undertakings as a 
linear sequence of Next 
Actions. Like most people - and project managers, and as taught at the Project 
Management Institute 
(http://www.pmi.org) - I formulate projects starting top down (PMI calls this 
the Work Breakdown 
Structure): Start with the big deliverables (e.g., "Get Requirements," "Create 
Acceptance Test," ...), and 
then drill down repeatedly until you have discrete, measurable Next Actions. 
Assign contexts, dates, and 
priorities, and you have the whole picture. Filter to focus. 
Thank you for your consideration.

I reactivate this issue cause I strongly agree with the comments above. 
SubProjects are really missing. So
* converting actions to projects
* assigning parent projects to projects
* creating sup projects
would be very helpful.

(and also the in mentioned 'multiple context')

Thanks a lot
