Idea 2: Far more likely
What about feeds? I've been playing around with the info here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/ msg22964.html
I've been able to publish a feed to a .atom file and subscribe to it
from Notes. I can't quite get the description and TODO properties to
register, yet, but you at least get the headlines. Can we work on
creating a format that would work for this? I think it's a pretty
cool idea and could allow for updating org files, publishing them to
a site or file
Thoughts?
Using Atom feeds would be... awesome. Atom indeed has the potential
to publish not just news about a web page project but things like,
say, Todo lists.
Agreed - my thoughts as well.
So /if/ Lotus Notes is capable of updating it's todo lists via Atom
the remaining question is: Which information must be present where in
the Atom document. Could you take look in the Lotus Notes help (if
present) if there is any information on how to update todo lists by
Atom documents?
I've been searching all kinds of things... converting todos, importing
todos, syncing todos, etc. in an effort to scrape up something of use to
this idea, but haven't really found anything. Probably stupid, but one
interesting program (I actually ran into this a ways back) is GCalDaemon
which can do all kinds of things. Here's a post on converting a feed into a
calendar entry in Mozilla Sunbird:
http://gcaldaemon.sourceforge.net/usage3.html
Again, probably not really applicable, but interesting nonetheless.
The only thing I can think of is creating a somewhat hackish system of
titling the items in org to be exported to Atom something like 'TODO: blah
blah' so they show up in the Notes feed with that title. Then in Notes, pop
open the feed reader and go from there? It would be more of a reminder
system, but then one would need to remember to mark things as done once back
in org, and remove it from the publishing list once it was done?
Not sure where to go... quite the interesting idea, though. My company
blocks POP and IMAP so I can't get at personal email or calendar from google
via Notes. I say this because the feeds, however, *do* still work so it's
pretty cool that this feature could be a universally accessible method.
