When I first started using Org-mode to keep track of events during the
day, I found the timestamp function extremely handy. I didn't want to
keep time to the minute, but round to, e.g., fifteen minute intervals.
Attached is the patch that I am proposing. Since it was originally
against 4.01, I hope I didn't miss anything important.
Alex.

Ah, Alex,
yes, thank you for this reminder. Alex did sent me that patch before.
I remember that I did like the idea but did not put it in because there
are more places in the code that dead with time stamps and that would
also have to be modified. So some work would be needed, right now I
don't know how much out of the top of my head.
More people who would find this useful?

Useful, maybe, for accounting purposes, in this case, the calculation of
the timespan in between could be extended to compute and insert a
rounded value.
For other purposes I would stay with the exact value (which of course
is still possible in Alex version), well, this is my personal opinion.

I agree, definitely a useful extension. I know a number of people who
log/record time to larger units than 1 minute (6 minutes seems to be
common).

Likewise, I would stay with the exact value but still like the idea of
being able to do something different.

Phil

It seems like people get used to that when they work in environments
that requires them to submit time cards. Personally, I just find it
annoying to look at the agenda view and see a meeting I attended
listed as 13:02-14:07 :-)

I tried to change it in a way that would not affect the existing
functionality. I also looked at all the calls to current-time (in the
4.01 version I started with) and only modified the ones that were
relevant. I did not look at 4.09/4.10 yet.
Alex.
