[Orgmode] GNOWSYS emacs web services (was: Re: Is there a good way to use org as blog system?)
Hi Nagarjuna, I happily discovered that a student was assigned to this project [1] in this year's GSoC: GNOWSYS emacs web services for The GNU Project Abstract: Idea is to develop an emacs like editor with the org specific semantics for the purpose of note taking authoring. Applying the rules of Org notations, it can also be extended to incorporate gnowsys-mode as it currently works in emacs. Export like features of Org-mode will be made possible in this editor by communicating through local emacs server. All the gnowsys-mode specific commands will pass on the request to the GNOWSYS server via local emacs daemon. So this sounds like it's going to be generic enough to be useful for orgmode as well. I imagine smartphone+orgmode users will profit from this, because the web browser would be a nice interface in addition to using emacs' gui/terminal interface. Enough of showing my appreciation, and good luck to Divya S (the student who's in charge)!

[Orgmode] Re: My reference data management approach with org and emacs
Hi Jan, thanks a lot for your description. I've actually been using a similar setup of one big and unstructured reference/snippet file and a script for scanning paper documents away without spending too much time thinking about where to put the resulting files. The problem was that the scanned documents were accumulating in a scan-inbox directory, waiting to be filled into a file hierarchy... too much overhead for little additional gain when digging for reference documents again. Your setup seems to fill the gap between reference paper and org-mode, so I'm happy you shared it. =) One tiny remark to your defcustom declaration: (defcustom jb/filing-attachment-dir nil The directory in which individual attachment dirs are created. :type 'string) resulted in an error message (custom-variable-mark-to-save: Symbol's value as variable is void: nilasdf) when trying to save the customize buffer. Customize was trying to save this value to ~/.emacs without around it. Using instead of nil in the declaration fixed this for me. 'C-c r p' also behaves a bit odd as long as jb/filing-attachment-dir isn't initialized yet, but I don't care.
