Karl,
thanks for all of this, and for writing and posting your blog entry
(words of caution for many).
my thoughts on your project are something like this:
- i think non-emacs tools to deal with org mode files is a Good Thing.
- for me, the main motivation is to allow *me* to share an org mode
file with someone -- say via a git repo -- and have them be able to do
something reasonable, if restricted, with it -- extract the code,
query subtrees or tables, etc. -- without recourse to emacs.
- i think collaborative editing with non-emacs users should be not be a
goal of *this* endeavor.
- for me, your main invention, and the place (non pro-versus-con)
discussion should focus, is on your levels: what's at level 1, at what
level is org-mode itself, etc. there are some tricky things here
(e.g., for tables, what to do with hlines, with column width
specifications, at the various "conformance levels"?)
- and, sigh, i prefer some other name; like "org mode syntax (level 0)".
maybe it will acronymize into omsl0 (gasp!). who knows. i do think
"orgdown" was a clever choice, but i'm not a fan.
cheers, Greg
