Test file:

   * Tasks                                                             :task:
   ** TODO Mow lawn                                                    :home:
   ** TODO Install R                                                 :office:


   * Projects                                                       :project:
   ** TODO Set up cluster                                            :office:
   ** TODO Sort out backup                                             :home:

Actual Results:

   ============================================================================
   Office
     agendatest: TODO Mow lawn                                     :task::home:
     agendatest: TODO Install R                                  :task::office:
     agendatest: TODO Set up cluster                          :project::office:


   ============================================================================
   Home TODOs
     agendatest: TODO Mow lawn                                     :task::home:
     agendatest: TODO Install R                                  :task::office:
     agendatest: TODO Sort out backup                           :project::home:

Expected Results:

   ============================================================================
   Office
     agendatest: TODO Install R                                  :task::office:
     agendatest: TODO Set up cluster                          :project::office:


   ============================================================================
   Home TODOs
     agendatest: TODO Mow lawn                                     :task::home:
     agendatest: TODO Sort out backup                           :project::home:


I hope this is complete. I don't quite know what the best way to test
something like this is without disturbing my configuration too much.

I looked here

   http://orgmode.org/manual/Block-agenda.html#Block-agenda

but there is no complex example with and-ing and or-ing tags.

Thank you for taking the time.
