List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: emacs-orgmode-bounces+geo-emacs-orgmode=m.gmane.org@gnu.org Sender: emacs-orgmode-bounces+geo-emacs-orgmode=m.gmane.org@gnu.org To: emacs-orgmode@gnu.org Hi, A common workflow (of mine) is: Work on something, submit and wait several days or weeks for a review or reply before I can continue. So I switch to the next task. I'd love if org-mode could keep track of tasks that are waiting for others and semi-automatically remind those others in a weekly email that I'm waiting for them. I imagine a command that I could run over my tasks. The command finds such tasks, prepares a reminder mail that I can send directly from within emacs and remembers the date when I last naged the other. Any ideas? Thanks for your attention, Thomas Koch, http://www.koch.ro
