It *is* :-) I enjoy using it every day!

Yes, a *lot* more than this. You realize the real beauty of Memacs
only when you already set up the system. With a Memacs-filled agenda
you get a cool overview of your digital (and analog) life :-)

Sorry, I do not see a point in combining Memacs with Gnowsis. The
technical layer of Memacs is fairly simple. If Gnowsis wants to
include external data into their system, they can implement their
own parsers as well.

Or they implement an Org-mode-parser and include the resulting files
of Memacs.

Either way: Memacs does nothing else than generating condensed views
on the data you already got.

Or do you mean Memacs should provide a module that parses Gnowsis
data set?
