I intended this for the list, for what it's worth, so I am forwarding it now.

Hello:
I tried at some point to reduce the orgcard to an org-mode file. I
have a copy, but it's way out of date. Org is changing too fast for
me to keep up. It's perhaps worthwhile, though, and maybe useful. It
is to me. It's attached.
I started by running, I think, untex on orgcard.tex, then formatting
the output by hand.
