I had never heard of that document, but it looks cool!

I see that jt is here:
http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/tree/doc/library-of-babel.org

(It got moved in 2013:
http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=321f806fafb596b53da7c944267f53f34d05af3e

Org-plus-contrib from ELPA doesn't have the doc folder and is likewise
missing the library-of-babel.org file.

My response was only to "Where has the Library of Babel gone?" :)

I don't know the reasoning behind why that file is no longer part of
contrib (Copying Bastien to help with this as he was the commit author).

Thanks for your response.

Org babel used to live in contrib, but was moved into core once it was
relatively mature and stable.

I'm wondering where to find library-of-babel.org in the ELPA
distribution of Org mode, org-plus-contrib.

All the best,
Tom

The only thing that I could do was create a file and load it every time 
with ~org-babel-lob-ingest~. I hope that helps you, and that you get 
your answer. I am also interested to know.

P.S. sorry for my last reply to the Org-mode mailing list. I should have 
checked the subject.

Thanks for your response.

Apparently, library-of-babel.org is not distributed with the Org mode
that ships with emacs.  Not sure why that is.  I'm guessing it's a
license issue?

The ELPA package, org-plus-contrib, appears to mimic the emacs
distribution of Org mode, rather than replicate the development master
branch, which is where I used to find the library.

I'm using org-plus-contrib since I moved to spacemacs a while back.

Does anyone else use org-plus-contrib and library-of-babel.org?  Any
suggestions on how to track and install library-of-babel.org in this
situation?

All the best,
Tom

It will be in the next release (in /emacs/etc/org/).  If there's a license
issue it needs to be removed.

On the Emacs list, Glenn asked us to add a license to
library-of-babel.org:

    https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-07/msg00169.html

At the time, I wondered whether that file had any contributors without
copyright assignment.  I briefly looked through the list of authors
touching library-of-babel.org in the Org repo and the worg repo, and I
didn't find any contributors that aren't included in the assignment list
at http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html

Thanks, I missed that.

Should I add the copyright header to Emacs repo and we backport it from
there, or is it better to add it via a forthcoming 9.0.10 update?

Please make the change directly in the Emacs repo.  That way the Emacs
developers know it's been addressed, and we minimize the time that the
file is in the Emacs tree without a copyright header.

Thanks.

thanks for the heads up -- I'm focusing on my work this week and I
won't have time to deal with orgmode requests until this week-end,
but I will then.

> At the time, I wondered whether that file had any contributors without

Thanks for checking this.

In general, if some contributors are not listed on org-contribute.html
I can also check on the GNU server for the list of people with copyright
assignment.

I suggest using the same copyright conditions than the one we have for
Worg documentation:

  Documentation from the http://orgmode.org/worg/ website (either in
  its HTML format or in its Org format) is licensed under the GNU Free
  Documentation License version 1.3 or later.  The code examples and
  css stylesheets are licensed under the GNU General Public License v3
  or later.

But: I would first consider whether this file should be part of Emacs
and Org's core.  I think it should be on Worg instead, to get a chance
to be maintained by more contributors.

What do you think?

The reason why this library-of-babel.org was not in Emacs is not
because of its lack of license.  I guess it's because Carsten and
Eric didn't think of it as something that should land in Emacs.

Hence my will to clarify this by moving it to Worg, where it will
be more easily accessed.

Sounds reasonable to me.  I don't have a good understanding of
library-of-babel.org and have never used it, though, so my opinion
shouldn't count for much either way.

Thanks.

Fine by me, but then let’s remove the references to it in the manual.

I personally do not see how that is more easily accessible.  If part of
Org, it’s already there when I start Emacs.  If it lives in Worg, the user
must first wget it and tell Emacs how to find it.

Maybe the feature could be referred to "Babel Libraries" or "Code
Block Libraries". Because they provide re-usable libraries. The
"library of babel" reads like there is just one of them, but there are
as many as you wish aka "Libraries of Babel". I skimmed over this
feature, skipping the part that you can load *anything*. It doesn't
stand out but it is a *big deal* for users coming to Org-Mode to know
that they can share/re-use libraries.

If you like a name then I will submit a pull request with a
documentation change.

The code change would rename functions and documentation. Is it too
soon to submit function name changes, too?

I asked Eric Schulte about his thoughts on library-of-babel.org and the
current question of whether it should live on Worg or be distributed
with emacs.

   I don't recall why I would have thought that the library-of-babel.org
   shouldn't be distributed with Emacs so, assuming this is a position I
   held, I can't speak to the merit of my argument.

   Sorry I can't be of more help... For what it's worth I can't currently
   think of a good reason why this should not be distributed with Emacs.
   However, the same care should be taken with entries in the library as
   with any other executable code in Emacs that will run on user's
   machines.

   My thinking today is that this decision should be made based on the
   utility (to how many users) vs. the weight this could add to an Emacs
   install.  I thought Emacs was headed to distribution as a smaller core
   with more moved into external packages, but I haven't seen any evidence
   of that yet.

hth,
Tom

Hi Bastien and Rasmus,

Any further thoughts on this?  If we're still not sure what to do with
the file, I'd vote that we remove it from Emacs for now so that we don't
let an unlicensed file sit in the Emacs repo.

Thanks.

If it's to be referred in the manual it should be there IMO.  Otherwise,
it could be removed from both places.

I personally don’t understand how it would be more convenient to host it
on Worg.

Nonetheless, I do not feel strongly against removing it.

Aloha Rasmus,

I agree, and believe the best course forward is to resolve the licensing
of library-of-babel.org (which appears not to be problematic) and
include the file in the emacs distribution.

When I asked on the list for advice how to install library-of-babel.org
from Worg, there was no response, which suggests to me that few users
actually work out a way to install it from Worg.

All the best,
Tom

Hi Kyle,

the library of Babel now lives in Worg here:
http://orgmode.org/worg/library-of-babel.html

I’ve checked and fixed references to it in Org’s documentation,
but if I missed something please let me know.

Thanks,
