Because my deadlines tend to be more fluid, I've found "todo trees"
to be helpful in terms of managing tasks & task dependencies.

One of my recent "todo trees":
curl jer.cx/pasta/QtA | dot -Tpng /dev/stdin -o o.png && sxiv o.png

We're using graphviz' "dot" for the visualization here.

In the example, I need a downtime window before I can goto the DC, as
well as some hardware brackets, then when we're there, we can install
the hardware, etc;

Not sure how one would visualize(& make it easy to express) deadlines,
dependencies & conditionals, but I suspect there's a very lucrative market
oppurtunity for someone who could.
