Simple question -- does org-mode handle task dependencies?  And, if so,
how well?  In the outline form, I see you could setup parent-child
relationships between tasks.  I'm looking for more of tasks that aren't
related, but are dependent on each other.

In particular, in a parent-child relationship, you might say "THIS task
is done when all of THOSE tasks are done" whereas I'm looking for more
of a "THIS task can be started when all of THOSE tasks are done".

How would you set this up in Org-Mode?
