There is quite a bit of misunderstanding going on in this thread. I did not suggest to change the orgmode.org website for users who _will never use Emacs_. One of the ideas was rather to make the website more approachable for the listed groups of people and encourage them to use Org mode _for Emacs_. (The other one was related to third-party developers, but it is not what my reply above was about). The message above is simply about how orgmode.org appears in web search results. The current website title looks [for non-Emacs users] like an agglomeration of meaningless words and I suggested to make a little bit of SEO and change the title into something with more readable keywords. That's it. > For Orgdown I had in mind number 2 and 3. For supporting the idea > for Orgdown, I thought of number 1. (Well, that turned out in a > mixed way[1]). I understand and I like the idea of Orgdown in general (and I do not really care about the naming - you already did a great job making it sufficiently unique as can be easily seen in https://duckduckgo.com/?q=orgdown&ia=web). This thread is my attempt to adapt some ideas you introduced within narrow scope org Org mode for Emacs and our orgmode.org website. We can really benefit from thinking about luring non-Emacs users into Org mode for Emacs and from improving Org grammar documentation (aka Orgdown ∞). Best, Ihor
