org-depend new features

Hi,

There was a discussion some time ago about adding some new features to
org-depend [1]. I'm not sure if anyone else is looking into this, but I
have started on trying to implement some of the features summarized in [2].

I have multi-file TRIGGER and BLOCKER task actions working. My working
branch can be found in [3] if anyone is interested.

Should I submit each feature as a patch as I complete them or wait until I
have completed them all?

I am new to elisp so any advice is appreciated.

Adrian

I wrote a package that I've used to replace org-depend called org-edna.
From the project page:

It's available on ELPA if you'd like to try it out, or check out the project on Savannah:
