When precisely does nothing happen? After you call org-publish?

You've set org-publish-to-html in your org-publish-project-alist, so
that means that it will be the publishing function for the project
"plan". So when you call org-publish with one of the functions above, it
should publish the project "plan" to html in the publishing-directory
you've specified.

You might want to add the line

:base-extension "org"

to your publishing alist, though I'm not sure whether that's absolutely
necessary.
