11 A survey was conducted of org-mode users duing November 2007. An
12 invitation was sent to the org-mode users list as well as announced on
13 the http://orgmode.org web site. About 80 people resonded. This file

59 * 3. When did you first start using org-mode and how did you find out about it?
61 - Org 5.04, Aug 2007 - Searching around the Web
62 - 2007, December found about in in emacs wiki
63 - November 2006, found it while googling GTD tools
64 - moved from planner about 6 months ago
65 - 2005, probably read about it on Sacha Chua's blog.
66 - August 2007? Heard of it a long time ago, maybe by following links
67 from johnh's notebook mode. Finally switched from planner after a
70 - about the begining of 2007. Heard about it on the internet I guess.
71 - I found it by way of emacswiki.org. I was an avid user of outline
72 mode, and found somebody's screencast (Scott Jaderholm's, I think)
73 showing off org mode. I've been using it for probably about six
75 - Oct. 2007. I think I was looking for an alternative to planner.el.
76 - august 27, 2006. I found it while looking for an alternative to
78 - Roughly 2005/6, through a friend.
80 - July 2007 after I saw the entry in Emacswiki
82 - 2007-06 thrrough Sacha Chua's blog
83 - Oldest entry in my archive file is June 2005, but I think I was
84 using org for a while before that. I don't remember when I heard
86 - Around version 4.76, don't remember when. Found about it on the
88 - 10/2006 by chance looking for pim tools for Emacs
89 - One month ago, found a link on a web site
91 - 02/2007 After getting annoyed with Muse-mode interaction with
92 outline-mode, I googled and found org-mode and never went back.
93 - Using for about 2 years. Found org-mode after searching for a better
94 version of outline-mode
95 - Sometime around Jan. 2005. Someone mentioned it on the 43folders.com
96 message board (probably Jason F. McBrayer) and I decided I'd check
98 - August 2007. I heard it about it on the planner mode mailing list.
100 - I read about org-mail from an email of a maillist ... dnon't know
102 - A year ago because someone mentioned it in #emacs on freenode as a
103 better planner-el solution
104 - 2 months ago when I started using Emacs. I was also looking for a
105 way to organize and found org-mode via blogs etc.
106 - 3 month ago. I was looking forward some emacs "PIM".
108 - Can't remember; at least two years ago? I think I would have first
109 heard about it from the Emacs Wiki.
110 - Around May 2007. I don't recall.
111 - No idea 6 months back probably; on the wiki site I think
112 - 2007-08 First heard mention in a GTD mailing list, but realised it
113 was going to be great after seeing screencast at
114 http://jaderholm.com/screencasts.html
116 - almost 2 years emacs newsgroups
117 - 2006-08 (version 4.50)
118 - approx. March 2006. I don't recall how I found out about it.
119 - I think I began using it in 2005. I found out about it on the
121 - it's been about a year, I can't remember how I found out about it,
122 maybe on the #emacs channel IRC.
123 - 2007-03 www.emacswiki.org
125 - In 2005, I found out about org-mode while googling for some kind of
126 outliner software. My search must have hit upon a listserv post. My
127 first try at using it was in June 2005, but I didn't like
128 it. Carsten made many improvements and in December 2005, he emailed
129 me to ask me what I thought. It thought it was pretty good, and I've
130 been using it almost every day since.
131 - October 2006. Saw orgmode mentioned in comments on 43folders.com
132 - 2007 july, emacs wiki
133 - Around September 2007. I first knew it from planner-mode mailing
134 list. I used to use planner-mode.
136 - 2007-09 NEWS in Gnu Emacs 22
137 - 21 april 2006 (was the oldest .org file I could find on my
138 system). Found out through... #emacs I think. dto was talking about
140 - I have a "org version 3.05" in my .emacs So it should be from spring
141 2005 (March? May?) I read an article in the web, a blog I think. so
142 I began using Emacs to use org (uh! :-)
143 - August 2007 Slashdot article on GTD Wired article on GTD Google
144 search for GTD found org-mode tutorial.
146 - June 2007. At may I started learning Emacs for the first time, and
147 together all its related modes. At #emacs at irc.freenode.org and at
148 EmacsWiki it was mentioned org-mode.
149 - 2007-04 I was into emacs learning and stumbled upon org-mode I don't
151 - 2007 February, emacswiki.org and discussions on the planner.el
153 - Sometime before April 2006
155 - April 2006 (ca org-mode 4.25) Switching from Planner after numerous
156 mentions of org on the planner mailing list.
158 - In june 2006. By reading the tutorial here:
159 http://www.legito.net/worg/org-tutorials/orgtutorial_dto.php
160 - Aug 2005 After trying out Sacha's planning mode i knew it was close,
161 but not quite right for me. Googling around I found org mode.
162 - Probably 2004, before it had texinfo documentation or even before
165 - 2007-01 I think I've read a blog about it or I've stumbled across it
167 - I started to use org-mode a year ago. I found org-mode on the emacs
169 - 2007, September, read about it on the pages explaining how it was
171 - November-December 2006, after googling for "emacs pim". Or,
172 probably, there was an article (linux.com?).
173 - 5/2006, after emacswiki or web tutorial
174 - at least as long as the newsgroup has been gmane, as I submitted it
175 there. I must have found out on emacs wiki?
176 - ~March 2007. I was using planner and I think I saw references to it
177 there and checked it out.
178 - I subscribed to the list in 8/06. Maybe a month or two before that.
180 - 2007/01, by a org-mode tutorial.
181 - I can't remember that. I used to use planner-mode. When someone
182 mentioned org-mode on that mailing list, I decided to have a try.
183 - 2006-03 -- via your (Charles Cave) posting of 2006-03-10 to Getting Things Done
186 - Dunno. A while ago.
187 - 2006 found out indirectly from the Planner mode or maybe Emacs Wiki
190 * 4. What are your main uses of org-mode?
192 - daily task planing, private and at work documenting know-hows,
193 collecting informations (web searches etc.), contacts
194 - i plan to use it for GTD and (maybe) as replacement for LyX as
195 general writing tool (via LaTeX export)
196 - Project planning, task management
197 - todo list / scheduler
198 - TODO list management
199 - Task list and note taking
200 - Todo-list administration - Time tracking - Creating outlines
201 - write lists to keep track of projects and infomation
202 - I mostly use it as an extended version of outline mode, as well as
203 the agenda mode. Managing TODO lists and the like. I also really
204 like the integration with remember mode.
205 - TODO list, calendar/appointment app, note-taking, "digital junk
206 drawer" a la Yojimbo, minor mode for drafting documents,
207 org-publish.el, org-blog.el
208 - Planning and taking notes (with remember mode.)
209 - TODO lists (GTD methodology) and diary
210 - Planning, project, time and task tracking.
214 - Maintaining a GTD system for personal organization, tracking time
215 for work reporting and billing.
216 - Organizing my tasks and plans at work. Trying to implement GTD with
218 - Reporting (org-outline/exporter!), GTD
219 - GTD, weekly planner
220 - Managing software development todo lists
221 - Agenda, todo tracking, lecture notes, blogging
223 - 1) Maintaining my personal lists of projects and tasks 2)
224 Maintaining a "wiki" of reference material (org-mode doc that links
225 to external files and URLs) 3) Maintaining an archive of completed
226 projects 4) Keeping track of my agenda 5) Outlining and
227 brainstorming 6) Organizing journal entries
228 - Personal task lists.
230 - Organizing and managing projects
231 - gtd - project management - generating htmls - minutes, documentation
232 - notes, todo-lists, planner
233 - Agenda (GTD) Notes keeping Publishing tool
234 - Slowly it is becoming my desktop. I write, use it for email
235 composition, technical documentation. Slowly getting into planning,
237 - Project planning and task tracking.
238 - keeping track of things to do.
240 - Running my work and home todo lists and notes, but progressively
241 more and more using it for everything.
242 - TODO list and meeting minutes
243 - Task/Todo List information list some local hacks for finance
244 - todo lists and knowledge base
245 - Task management (TODO lists) * Note taking * Export/Publish (e.g.,
246 publish notes to website) * Personal web pages (via org-publish)
247 - I use orgtbl-mode most of the time in muse files, that's how I came
248 into contact with org-mode. I use it for writing (software)
249 documentation, (work related) project planning, and measuring the
250 time I work on projects.
251 - planning my TODO list and more recently my agenda GTD style
252 - Timeplanning, Timekeeping, Todo/Reminder
253 - replacement for time management system (todos, project organisation,
254 schedules) replacement for spreadsheet helper in LaTeX modes
257 - 1.) Note taking: web links, links to lines of code I'm working on,
258 bibtex entries. 2.) Brainstorming. When I'm trying to figure out how
259 to do something, I often fire up org-mode, dump a bunch of random
260 thoughts into it, and then organize it into something that makes
261 sense. 3.) Experiment logging. I use table node to store pretty much
262 all the results I've accumulated for my PhD thesis. 4.) TODO
263 lists. I thought I'd use the GTD capabilities on org-mode but can't
264 force myself to do it. But still, for little projects, I use the
266 - Action items Notes and lists Tables of passwords Publishing website
267 - maintain my thoughts, experimental results and agenda
268 - As a GTD tool to keep all aspects of my life organized.
270 - Just getting used to it. Try to organize primarily work stuff, maybe
271 later will get into private things.
272 - note taking, managing todo's, keeping track of time spent on a
273 project and making tables.
274 - Everything! :-) + keeping notes, + maintaining TODO lists +
275 exploiting the Agenda facilities (wow!) + doing project planning +
276 writing text and exporting in HTML + a 'database' for experiments
277 data (I'm "implementing" it (wow, wow!)
278 - Task list/agenda/calendar some "filing" of data, storage of links to
280 - Note taking for courses
281 - Learn more about organizing tasks - Trying to substitute little
282 papers with appointments - Publish works (thesis, articles, web
283 pages, ...) - Support a bit the process of writing an article
284 (TODOs, deadlines, sections, ...)
285 - documentation todo list management complete daily work organisation
286 private and at work planing of schedules for church and sports
287 create customer visit protocols (html for colleagues) I have access
288 to my org files via svn world-wide
289 - all aspects of GTD except calendar
290 - Outlining and Organising.
291 - Day to day planning. Constantly switching between gtd and John
292 Wiegly's setup to find out what suits me best.
293 - Todo List management. Task Scheduling. Note taking. Blogging
294 (Blorg). Simple Bug Tracking.
295 - Organizing my work.
296 - Managing all my projects and todo lists using GTD, and managing my
297 diary/calendar. Basically, I use it to manage my life - home, work,
298 social etc. Also use it for hierarchical editing of files etc, but
300 - day planner (in agenda view) - generation of hipsterPDA - easy
301 folding documentation tool (write text docu, use folding to hide
302 sections I'm not working on currently, and finally generate html or
305 - I organize all my projects and appointments with org.
306 - Mainly todos/tasks planning and follow up
307 - I use it to keep track of articles I have to write for clients (I'm
308 a journalist). I keep a page per client. I also use it to keep notes
309 on personal stuff, such as sport activities, todo things around the
310 house, garden and so on
311 - advanced todo list, reading diary, simple HTML authoring.
313 - note taking, task management, document creation, webpage publishing
314 - task management, notes about work and home projects, regular
315 journaling -- the list of things is expanding as I spend more and
316 more time in emacs/org.
317 - Project planning, scheduling. Information
318 gathering. Wishlists. Outlines. Todo lists (checkboxes). Data
319 munging (tables) Review planning (outline w/ links)
320 - For GTD and basic word processing
321 - Projects, Notes, Memorial days etc.
322 - single file for everything
323 - Amassing and sorting to-dos and reference information. (Recovering
324 from mild brain injury in 2005 that affected ability to categorize
325 and prioritize, need mechanical aids!)
326 - Handling notes. Displaying the calendar. Use the agenda view to
328 - Outlining and providing group TODO lists with explanations.
329 - To Do List and Project Tracking Writing articles for export to HTML
330 - Note taking, task management
332 * 5. New features and product maturity?
336 What new features (if any) would you like to see in org-mode or do you
337 think the product has reached maturity?
339 - case sensitive search in tag completition - multilingual day name
340 input product has reached maturity in my opinion
342 - A way to make it more Gnome friendly would be nice. In the case that
343 you don't have emacs started, you lose your ideas until you can note
345 - I still haven't learnt enough to fully customize my environment.
346 - Nothing specific, but I love the current state of development.
347 - Syncing todos to other devices such as cellphones and palms, I know
348 it would not be very easy to do but would be extremely useful
349 - No idea, sorry. I think it has enough features at present that seems
350 a bit intimidating, really. (Minor quibble -- I changed some of the
351 keybindings. I prefer M-left/right to hide/show subtrees, rather
352 than cycling with tab, and use # instead of * for outline
353 levels. This is mostly habits from a "todo-mode" used on emacs
354 in-house where I work.)
355 - I'm on the lookout for a cell phone that runs Emacs, but... I haven't
356 found any mechanisms for remotely adding/editing timestamps,
357 changing the state of TODO items, etc. Neither have I found a way to
358 trigger reminder sounds, e-mails, phone calls, or IM messages. I'm
359 not sure about the best way to approach "mobile org-mode"... A
360 web-interface like Webjimbo? More robust import/export/sync to iCal
361 or GData? If we can find a way to usefully sync org-mode with mobile
362 devices, it'll be just about perfect.
363 - Current features are enough for me.
364 - It is certainly mature. However I would also like to be able to use
365 it as a wiki and general-purpose document authoring/publishing
366 tool. In an ideal (and possibly unrealistic) world I would love to
367 see unification with muse-mode. To what extent is this possible?
368 - I am still too new to it to comment on this.
369 - It's quite mature and I surely don't master it. What I'd like to see
370 is easier manipulation of the agenda export.
371 - Compatibility with other wiki syntax (importer or exporter)
373 - Basically mature; I'd like to see refinement within the current
375 - You can always add new features! I would like to see an easy way to
376 tell how old my entries are. I would like to be able to derive a
377 task order based on importance and age (for tasks that don't have a
378 deadline but must be completed eventually). Also I would like to see
379 it integrated with other tools. I think a MindMap converter (for
380 FreeMind) would be cool - although it probably could be an external
382 - Export to WordprocessingML would be perfect. Currently I export to
383 HTML and read the reports into Word, saving them as *.doc. But you
384 loose some features and details doing this.
385 - Integration out-of-the-box with remote calendar systems like Google
387 - Close to maturity. Some new features would be nice, but not terribly
388 important: Keeping root to leaf tree structure when archiving part
389 of a subtree. Simple dependent todos (i.e. dependent todo moves into
390 "NEXT" state when previous todo is marked "DONE"). Exporting entries
391 in HTML in monospaced font by default (i.e. without specially
392 marking individual entries). Auto-sorting of entries within a single
393 parent node (e.g. when a node is marked "DONE", move it lower in the
394 parent's list of todos). Integration with project management
396 - Some kind of resolution to the line wrapping issue with headlines.
397 - Simpler ways of doing things (perhaps with mouse commands)
398 - I'd say it's pretty close to maturity. I haven't used most of the
399 more recently-added advanced features.
400 - I'd like easier customization of "workflow" steps that would make it
401 easier to update states and record notes related to state changes
402 (and skip these notes when the state transitions are obvious in
404 - No immediate demands. I do not think the project has reached
406 - This product has reached maturity since long! In my point of view
407 this is. Excellent work!
408 - depending tasks - integrated pdf-generation (especially for
409 windows) - visualisation for tasks (like gantt) - a minor mode for
410 contacts like vcard.el
411 - I think it reached maturity. It would be nice to have some minor
412 things, like a posibility to insert todo's right inside your project
413 source code and then have them added in agenda automatically.
414 - Instead of new features, I'd much prefer keeping XEmacs
416 - Wishlist - Adding arbitrary (user specified) relations between nodes
417 with a specific relation name. for example, x <part of> y; where x
418 and y are two nodes. - Making the above functionality work between
419 files - making the above work between nodes published on a
420 distributed server In the GNU project GNOWSYS, we do this, where it
421 is a web application. We are now exploring how org mode can be used
422 as a client to manage the data published in GNOWSYS. Out team would
423 be more than willing to collaborate, but our team members are all
424 Python hackers, and use Emacs only for coding
425 - I am having trouble keeping up with the many new features of the
427 - I think it is mature enough for me
428 - automatic reminders in Emacs as pop ups?
429 - I'm quite content as it is. I guess I could probably think of one or
430 two things, but I wouldn't want to spoil its power/simplicity
432 - planing times for tasks and compare them to actuel used times (and
433 also give out a warning if to many hours are planed for one day) -
434 agenda export to latex - simple project management
435 - a gtd framework would be a killer feature!! more visual effects with
436 overlays However, it's "d�éj�à " a very good work. Thanks.
438 - Nearing maturity, but then again, maybe I'm just out of ideas.
439 - I would like org-mode (or other parts of it like orgtbl) to become a
440 minor mode so I can turn it on/off in other buffers (mainly
441 muse). For example I would love to use todo list editing features in
443 - I don't understant all the features yet :)
445 - New features, in order of importance to me: 1.) A way to select a
446 chunk of text in firefox and paste it into org-mode, along with a
447 nicely formatted URL link. I would use this many times a day. MS
448 OneNote does this well. 2.) A way to link to email in an IMAP
449 folder. Preferably, this link would point directly to the email on
450 the IMAP server. The link should look like all the other links, and
451 you should be able to just drag it from, say, Thunderbird, into
452 org-mode, although a Thunderbird keyboard shortcut would be nice. I
453 would use this every day. 3.) More flexible outline prefixes. You
454 should be able to make headlines of this type: I. asdlfk i. asdfj
455 ii. asdlfkj II. ... Or 1. Introduction 1.1 asdfkj 1.2
456 asdfkl 2. Background ... Emacs hyperbole:
457 http://directory.fsf.org/project/hyperbole/ did this
458 beautifully. 4.) Internal links search in a way consistent with
459 emacs search (Ctrl-s). When you click on a link, it should go
460 towards the end of the buffer for the next match. When there's
461 nothing towards the end, it should wrap to the top. 5.) Fix the
462 underline/bold/italic stuff (if that is a new feature) 6.) Better
463 formatted html table export
464 - Better support for working with others.
465 - I would like to see different way to view or summarize ageda. Like
466 progress, next possible todo
467 - I think org-mode is quite mature now except there may be still some
468 bugs in it and some features may need more polish
469 - Too novice a user yet to comment
471 - I like to be surprised more than wishing
472 - I'd like better integration with calendar mode of
473 emacs. Specifically, when using the calendar, the command 'i d' to
474 insert an appointment, the diary file is used. I'd like to set a
475 headline in my orgmode buffer for that insert, for consistency with
476 the calendar entries I make by hand while processing my inbox Also,
477 navigation from agenda to org-file is easy. navigating back is
479 - possibly nested numbered lists: 1. head 1 1.1 sub-head 1 1.2
480 sub-head 2 Also lettered lists: a. point a b. point b but I'm
481 already quite satisfied
482 - implement all features of muse-mode. Ex: list of pages, backlinks,
483 following links with Enter, ... - consistent and clear syntax for
484 formatting text, which doesn't require memorizing use cases or
485 exceptions (ex: *a* isn't bold)
486 - syncing with my palm would be the greatest need. (syncing with
487 outlook would do the job as outlook is snced with the palm)
488 - mostly small things like an isearch mode that only matches headlines
489 (and doesn't auto expand), an allout-copy-exposed-to-buffer
490 equivalent, hipster pda publishing
491 - I've too many ideas to write here. The only thing i can think of is
492 not quite org related. A published bison or antlr grammar, so people
493 can write org parsers/processors in other languages, and extend its
494 integration into other systems.
495 - Org mode is fairly mature. Only the remaining inconsistencies should
497 - Hard to say, every so often I think of a feature that might be nice
498 to have. I have a feeling that alternate views (like the agenda) to
499 allow other ways of exploring your information would be handy, but I
500 have no concrete ideas yet as to what they might be.
501 - Better exporting (for example better LaTeX export).
502 - The only thing I need is better integration with mh-e (I suspect it
503 is already there - just need to find the time to sort it out). Other
504 than that I am very content!
505 - I always wanted to be able to schedule a task for a specific week
506 (as oposed to a date) - I would like to improve the hipsterPDA
507 generation (export the agenda view as nice LaTeX, improve the
509 - Org grows faster than I can learn all those nice features. One
510 feature I'd love to see was that the HTML export created docs that
511 could be outlined like in an org buffer. I guess that's possible
513 - Task dependency for project planing
514 - At the moment, I'm still on the learning curve. Org-mode has
515 soooooooooo many features I have not even discovered yet. I almost
516 daily open the manual pages to see I there is something I can use.
517 - Probably, customization of built-in agenda view. But I'd rather see
518 org-mode streamlined and cleaned of unnecessary
519 complications. Properties should be either integrated more tightly
520 to replace tags/priorities/etc, or removed.
521 - Looking forward to some of the dependency ideas.
522 - Import tasks from .ics files, include .ics files in agenda,
523 eventually include remote .ics files in agenda. Would like an
524 updated blogging tool that takes advantage of recent developments.
525 - I'm working on integration with my email client and web browser --
526 it's a slow process because I'm not a programmer, but I'm learning
527 bits and pieces about bash shell scripts and grabbing what I can
528 from experts already using org.
529 - I'd like a way to set project (outline item) dependencies and to
530 easily list those projects in dependency order. I could do it now
531 with properties, a dynamic block and some elisp. I'd use markup more
532 if it were more reliable in the emacs buffer. It might be nice to
533 have a mode where rigid outline style indenting is enforced while
534 editing outlines and lists. Perhaps as a buffer option or subtree
535 property. None of this is necessary or worth calling org-mode
537 - Not new features. But perhaps splitting org.el into different
538 modules: one for outlining, one for doc format (Wiki engine), one
540 - block quote text support. like wiki {{{ This is quote text }}}
541 Currently only putting ':' at beginning of text or heading.
542 - I hope a better archive mechanism using C-c C-x C-c, which could
543 keep the structure in my org file.
544 - Seems mature; new features always interesting but can add a layer of
545 too-many-choices distraction. (See prioritizing problems above ;) )
546 - New summary type {%} for progress status. Real comment syntax.
547 - I use only a fraction of its features.
550 * 6. Additional tutorials, documentation and screencasts would you like?
553 Which topics or "how-to" guides would you like to see in the
554 documentation or as a tutorial or screencast?
556 - none. documentation is excellent
557 - how to prepare/export/print GTD file to A7(index cards hPDA (hipster
559 - Everything should be a screencast for new users.
560 - I'd love to see more examples (with code) of how people use org,
561 especially for implementing GTD.
562 - More detailed information about blogging would be great, especially
563 motivation for using org.
564 - The manual and refcard usually have me covered. An in-depth
565 screencast on table/calc might be nice.
566 - More stuff about methodology to use it.
567 - Screencasts are most helpful to me. I would like to see material on
568 publishing and blogging in particular
569 - Project lifecycle. Timesheet reports.
570 - Exporting to other formats and customizing that
571 - lot of screencast showing new features of org (such as one already
573 - The documentation is actually rather good as it is, haven't found
574 anything lacking yet.
575 - Integration with remember
576 - Integrating org-mode with pine/alpine mailer.
577 - Not sure who you want to target. Advanced users are your bread and
578 butter and probably are OK. Beginners should get some screencasts
579 that describe a common problem and just focuses an how org mode can
580 help them. A good example is something like when someone's todo list
581 gets too long and complex and they want to split it, but maintain
582 connections between items on various lists, or perhaps view a
583 chronological list of all items in one location. Org mode is the
584 only program I know of the handles this kind of complexity
586 - In depth explanation of using the agenda to its fullest
587 - I'd love to see one on setting up column views. A tutorial on
588 publishing files would be great. And one about creating custom
590 - Changing the keybindings to make specific state transitions easier
592 - don't know as of yet ...
593 - using the spreadsheet with merged cells, calculation for rows and
594 columns - showing the true meaning of the properties stuff - over
595 all there should be examples - i really dislike the manual form
596 orgmode.org because it is technical oriented not for the simple
597 user - more howtos for gtd -> learning from each other
598 - Different usages of org-mode. From GTD to other ways ...
599 - I find the manual well written and sufficient.
600 - Use of drawers and properties.
601 - HOw to organize multiple projects; auto-archival.
603 - Since Org-mode is (to me) a collection of "orthogonal" features, but
604 doesn't much impose structure, I'd be interested in seeing how
605 others organise their data and "bring it to life" with the Org-mode
608 - more documentation for org's lisp functions (in fact more examples
609 with org's lisp funtions!!)
610 - remember mode integration
611 - I prefer the documentation and experimentation. Need drives my
613 - I don't have any preferences.
615 - I think a new user would benefit from a screencast showing basic
616 hierarchy creation and navigation
617 - Remember Practical uses of properties
618 - I would like to see more people to share their ways of using org
620 - The documentation is already very good and it seems the manual is
621 never out of sync from the latest org-mode version. I found the
622 mailing list is the best source of "how-to" as people's individual
623 situations are so much different.
624 - more of org for gtd
625 - how to deal with the calendar and insert dates quickly - two-way
626 backends for groupware-like behavior - calender functionality for
627 scheduled events (receive popups or emails or sms or the like) -
628 probably more but it's too early to say
629 - drawers + table calculations
630 - Using org-mode as a calendar/planner. Perhaps a best practice around
631 where date- and time-stamps belong (in the headline? in a SCHEDULED:
632 property? DEADLINE: property?) Also, it would be helpful to be shown
633 the best practices around Categories (since they show up so
634 prominently in the agenda) I wanted them to be like David Allen's
635 "Contexts", but that's hard for me to manage.
636 - All the variables that you must configure to be able to write and
637 export an article successfully and without unexpected results - How
638 to move from {muse,kwiki,reST,planner,...} to org-mode: how to adapt
640 - examples of how to columns view
641 - real examples of different ways of using org-mode
642 - Scope projects? integrate Org into a software development
643 process/project? Handle <not at computer> org interactions?
644 - Daily use of agenda
645 - I'm still not familiar with the more advanced features of org-mode,
646 so I'm keen to see these areas explored in tutorials and guides.
648 - None that I would be interested in, although I accept that new users
649 would benefit from them.
650 - I think column-view is a great feature. Bastiens tutorial is good,
651 but I'm thinking a tutorial focused more on the use case as opposed
652 to the config option might be better. If I find time :-)
653 - I don't know if it's just me, but currently I make no use of
654 tags. So any how-to or screencasts of how to use categories and tags
655 together in a senseful way would be nice. Most usages of tags I've
656 seen so far where tags like :phonecall: or :appoitment:, but when I
657 have a TODO "Call Jim" or "Meet Jim" those are superluous...
658 - I would welcome such how-to's and offer to help. The drawback of
659 screencasts is they take a long time, and there is no way a viewer
660 can tell it will be usefull to sit it all out. A guide giving
661 examples (and using short screencasts, if necessary) gives the
662 reader an overview, he/she can skip sections and browse to a
663 chapter/paragraph deemed usefull. I would like to learn howto tweak
664 my custom built todo-lists so that some of the statuses show up in
665 the agenda, and others don't. Example WRITE should be on the agenda,
666 but INVOICE not really. But the intermediate VERIFY should.
667 - More on GTD. Agenda customization.
668 - More on column mode and new uses of properties.
669 - I know there are books and howtos about lisp, but it would be great
670 to see some smaller howtos that are specific to org applications,
672 - The remember mode stuff scares me. I need to take some time learn
673 it. I also know agenda can do a lot more than I do with it. I'd like
674 to see screen shots of of column mode to drool over since I'm not
675 running emacs 22 yet.
677 - Spreadsheet examples.
678 - how-to setup a gtd style system is always my favorite.
679 - Some experienced users' detailed explication of pros and cons of the
680 newer TMTOWTDI (There's More Than One Way To Do It) choices like
681 archiving methods, task states, etc. leading to -- you
682 guessed it -- prioritizing problems
683 - Building complex agenda views.
685 - Setting up a publishing/blog environment
687 * 7. Which features of org-mode do you use? (Spreadsheet, LaTeX, HTML, Remember, etc)
689 - Document Structure, Tables, Spreadsheet, Hyperlinks, TODO items,
690 Tags, Properties and Columns, Dates and Times, (Custom) Agenda Views
692 - Use the agenda/tags views heavily. Tables, but not really
695 - remember, agenda views.
696 - I'm sure I will use everything at some point. I've finally started
697 using remember recently, about to start using HTML for blogging I
698 think, and can imaging using LaTeX to print index cards even.
699 - Todo-list, agenda - remember
700 - Remember, agenda, I learned to use the tags / priorities, but they
701 don't seem to fit my style of use.
702 - Publish to HTML and LaTeX (although I'd prefer ConTeXt), dynamic
703 blocks, orgstruct minor mode, and hyperlinks. I'm not sure if they
704 count as a "feature", but I use deadlines, scheduling, and repeated
706 - remember, clock summary.
707 - TODO keywords, tags, timestamps (inc. deadlines/scheduling),
708 priorities, export to HTML/ics, tables, archiving, remember, custom
710 - Still exploring.. starting out with fundamentals as described in
711 John Weigly's excellent write-up.
713 - Basic planning, some html export, Wannt to use more features of org
716 - Much use of Remember, agenda, agenda todo lists. Some use of HTML
717 and LaTeX. A little use of spreadsheet.
718 - Starting to use spreadsheets and tables. I use the [/] feature to
719 keep track of task counts a lot. I like the "radio" links too. Don't
721 - Export2HTML, Remember, Agenda
722 - Remember, LaTex, ical export, Agenda and Diary integration
723 - HTML. My usage is pretty basic.
724 - LaTeX, HTML, Agenda, diary integration, Todo, outlining like crazy
725 - Spreadsheet (for tables)
726 - I use Remember, HTML, agenda views, hyperlinks, time-tracking,
727 timestamps, and tags. I occasionally use tables, and plan on using
728 the PROPERTIES drawer in the future. I don't currently use any
729 advanced table formulas or column view, but I'm glad they're there.
730 - Remember, basic task lists, and mostly the Agenda views.
731 - LaTex, HTML, Remember, Cal, diary
733 - agenda - html - spreadsheet
734 - Spreadsheet, remember, time logger and outlines.
735 - Document structure + hyperlinks, agenda + remember, exporting and
737 - writing documents, LaTeX, HTML.
739 - Remember, and the todo features.
740 - simple to do listing
741 - A lot: Outlines, Tables, Spreadsheets, TODOs, Links, Tags,
742 Timestamps, Clocking Time. A little: Agenda views, Properties and
743 Columns Not at all: LaTeX, HTML, Remember I plan to increase my
744 usage of all the above, apart from LaTeX, which I'll probably never
747 - Remember, Latex, spreadsheet (with calc)
748 - just to basic features
749 - * TODO's, including ** Scheduling ** Deadlines ** Archiving (both
750 tag and function) * Remember * LaTeX * export/HTML * Tables *
751 org-publish * Agendas
753 - remember, agenda, priority
756 - Basic outlining with tons of links of most types allowed. * Tables *
758 - Tables, HTML, Remember
759 - table, agenda, remember
760 - Probably the question is bettered asked with "which features of
761 org-mode do you not use?" :-) It seems I have almost used everything
762 except properties and drawers. Although I did not go into depth of
763 many of them, like I never used a formula in the built in org-mode
765 - tags, todos, links, timestamps
767 - tables, HTML, ToDo stuff/agenda, column mode, clock features,
769 - Agenda, time tracking, HTML, latex, spreadsheet
770 agenda export to ics (iCalendar) file TODO proper- ty drawers
771 - headings, tags, links, drawers & properties, table (& occasionally
772 spreadsheet), remember, todo's
773 - outlining - basic spreadsheet - org-export-as-latex - HTML -
774 org-publish - marking TODO/DONE (or equivalents) - agenda
776 - HTML, Remember, custom agenda views, tags matches, custom keyword
777 states, diary integration, recurring tasks, scheduling and
778 deadlines, org-nnml, hyperlinks, categories
779 - Agenda, Remember, Tags, Ascii Export, Tables, Outlining
781 - sometimes Spreadsheet remember extensively LaTeX/Html export
782 - Remember, Blorg, org-publish, Tables, Lists, Checkboxes, TODO
784 - LaTeX, html, remember, spreadsheet
785 - Tags, Remember, Diary integration, Logging, sometimes spreadsheet
787 - folding, TODOs, Agenda view, HTML generation, column-view
788 - Spreadsheet, HTML, Remember, fast selection of TODO keywords, links
789 to everywhere, extended timestamps and intervals
791 - I use remember very often. I have not really touched the
792 spreadsheet, don't need to. I use the deadline feature all the time
793 and the [/] todo list type. I have experimented with export to html,
794 in order to transport stuff to a very smart smart phone (iphone) but
795 that requires more tweaking on my side.
796 - todo and logging state changes, tags, priorities, hyperlinks,
797 remember, timestamps, agenda, export to HTML.
798 - Folding, spreadsheet, column mode, properties, schedule/agenda,
799 org-remember, html export, todo, tags
800 - I use everything except radio stuff and dynamic blocks, and I think
801 I will use those soon. Don't use XOXO export either, I guess.
802 - remember, tables, tasks, tags, archiving, calendar, html export, and
803 I'm learning a bit about LaTeX.
804 - In no particular order: tables, plain list folding, checkboxes and
805 checkbox counting [/], multiple todo sequences, tags, properties,
806 inactive dates, elisp formulas, html export, text export, in-buffer
807 markups (*/_), subtree in indirect buffer, links
808 - latex, html, remember
809 - spreadsheet, remember, agenda, outline, property, column view
810 - remember, archive, appointment, diary, timeclock
811 - Remember for fast to-do adds; use tables occasionally but mostly use
812 dedicated spreadsheet s/w for such functions. Hope to learn LaTeX at
814 - Agenda views Table editing Properties drawers HTML export LaTeX
816 - HTML. Remember. Tables.
817 - Mainly time stamps, agendas and HTML export
818 - LaTeX, Spreadsheet, Remember

862 * 10. Are there any other comments you would like to make about org-mode?
864 - Thanks for this great software, I've waited for years for such a
865 tool. I've wrote some tools around org in Perl, hopefully I'll find
866 some time to contribute. Thanx a lot
867 - Great tool to stay even longer in emacs OS :-)
869 - Great App, Great Support, Great Community
870 - org-mode is all-the-way cool.
871 - With the possible exception of Emacs itself, org-mode is my very
872 favorite bit of software. It has inspired me to learn LISP, so I'm
873 looking forward to contributing in the near future.
874 - It's fantastic and the maintainership and community are both second
877 - Great mode and very useful. Thanks a lot for your effort and time!
878 - Great Work ! Felicitation to its author
879 - It's indispensable for my current work and lifestyle.
880 - It is a great package, thanks for making it available and keeping
882 - Thanks for the org-mode. I just love it! Do all my personal and job
884 - Great tool, thanks thanks thanks :)
885 - It's fantastic -- thanks for the great tool. I'm getting older and
886 it's the only way I can "remember" everything. It's not just a great
887 todo list manager, but I use it to document almost everything about
888 my job (e.g. my original intentions about a
889 project/implementation). I can bury a TODO right down in the place
890 where I have most of the surrounding documentation.
891 - I cannot overstate how valuable this mode is. It single handedly has
892 the potential to make laypeople aware of Emacs. Thanks so much for
894 - Love it. Love it. Love it. Carsten is awesome.
895 - It's changing very fast, and I'm worried that my muscle memory will
896 start to fight against the changes. Still, it's good to see an Emacs
897 package with such active interest and support.
898 - I'm a happy user. Thanks to Carten and all contributors
899 - great guys on the mailinglist, great spirit, excellent product :-)
900 - Carsten, many thanks for this great piece of software! Keep it
901 simple and usuable - not everybody follows the power user discussion
903 - Keep up the great work! :)
904 - Thanks to Carsten and to people on emacs-orgmode !!
905 - Been a user of GNU Emacs for the last 18years, never seen such a
906 fascinating major mode. I like this kind of apps since I work in
907 knowledge organization, and would like to contribute in some
908 way. Our lab gnowledge.org would like to develop a java applet that
909 provides org mode kind of editing. The buffer thus produced will be
910 converted into html when the page is being served in the
911 background. This will encourage the community to do structured
912 documentation. Our lab is now engaged in developing
913 beta.selfplatform.eu, where in we would like to provide this
914 feature. Do you think, orgmode developers would like to help us or
915 contribute in this endeavor. Orgmode can be very useful for
916 furthering semantic computing.
917 - It is a great product. I does not need to grow. It might risk
920 - Thank you, Carsten!
921 - Has increased my productivity a lot!
922 - Really a great thank to the author "Carsten Dominik", "chapeau" as
923 they say in France!!!!
924 - Org-mode was relatively immature when I started using it, and I have
925 kept with it for 2 simple reasons: 1. The maintainer (Carsten) is
926 friendly, fast, accurate, and thorough 2. It works -- it does what
927 it claims to do, and does it well
928 - Org mode keeps me organized, it's outstanding!
929 - hmmh, org-mode is the first thing I start in the morning and the
930 last I close in the evening, I guess this tells it all.
931 - Org mode has been an incredibly useful tool that is fun to use. I
932 think a main reason for its utility is that basic use requires
933 little thought. When I'm using it for brainstorming, it's almost
934 like I'm not aware that I'm using any program -- I'm just
935 thinking. Any changes to org-mode should preserve this
936 simplicity. Thanks a ton to Carsten and all the others who have
937 contributed to this great project!
939 - Maybe we should consider a separate package or maintainer for
941 - Thanks, thanks and thanks.
943 - It's Fun. ASCII is usually the only interface I can get used to,
944 because it's so fast.
945 - org-mode makes me look organised (though a bit quirky). That's
946 enough reason to use it.
947 - Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
948 - Even if org-mode stands right where it is, it has been enormously
949 helpful. Thank you very, very much.
951 - Yes: org-mode progresses very well and improves with each version
952 - for me its the greatest found treasure since I "dicovered" Emacs.
953 - Great work! Wish I had time to contribute more.
954 - Keep up the good work :)
955 - It's a great software project and community. Thanks again to
957 - Excellent piece of software!
958 - I'm very very happy with it.
959 - org-mode is fantastic :-)
960 - The best feature of Org are its two maintainers Carsten and Bastien
961 and its helpful community.
962 - Great mode for emacs. I wish I was using it more
963 - It is great tool. Uncluttered. Thanks to Carsten et al.
965 - favorite piece of software I use.
966 - I'm continually amazed by what org can do, and also by how intuitive
967 it is. It's not at all unusual that I find myself thinking that it
968 would be great if org/emacs did "x", trying what seems to me to be
969 the way that it would do "x" if it could, and discovering that it
970 functions just as I expect. And when it doesn't, there are ways to
971 figure it out. (And Carsten is a great developer who shines at
972 hearing what his users are doing, responding to expressed needs, and
973 even being clear if/when he decides not to do what someone would
974 like him to do. Other heavy users and scripters are great as well.
975 - I started using Org-mode as an outliner. It is the best outliner
976 I've used an much more. The community is valuable but Carsten's
977 skill and judgment has made org-mode what it is.
978 - It's a killer tool that I could not live without.
979 - org-mode is great, I hope it can keep clean text file when adding
981 - I forced myself to learn emacs after 25+ years in the vi camp in
982 order to use org-mode. Loving it. Carsten's enthusiasm and support
983 are a joy, and the mailing list is always refreshing.
984 - I plan to run a website where users could share Org files and edit
985 them together. I plan to write a better exporter (and more formats!)
986 I think the Org syntax is mature enough to get more programs
987 interacting with it outside Emacs. Org is *great* :)
988 - It's wonderful. Thanks!
989 - org-mode is a fantastic program, supported by a lively helpful email
990 list. Carsten is very responsive to feature requests and helping.
