IMO making sure that Emacs-W32 and Aquamacs always ship a current version of org-mode would be the more straightforward and more productive way of doing this. Once someone starts using Emacs, they're likely to spend more and more of their tube time in it. The main good thing about org-mode as opposed to TaskPaper or GTDTiddlyWiki (etc., etc.) is that it's in Emacs, and you always have all of Emacs' facilities available to you in it. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Jason F.
