Requesting a new release of org-contrib.
Emacs 29 and the new main branch (emacs-30) require the 't'
condition in a cl-case to be the last entry. This breaks
org-checklist in version 0.4 of org-contrib.
The fix has already been applied
(https://git.sr.ht/~bzg/org-contrib/commit/6422b265f1150204f024e33d54f2dcfd8323005c)
but it is not available in NonGNU ELPA.
Could a new release of org-contrib be made to make the fix widely
available?
Thanks,
Malcolm

I'm also seeing this problem and I have org-todo-state-tags-triggers
set.
A git bisect points the finger at this commit, which also agrees your
observations about org-split-string.

[O] Automatically Concluding a Habit.
I have a habit that I'd like to perform every day or so in the lead up to an event, but after the event date I would like to be marked permanently done and never again appear in the agenda. Is there a way to do this automatically? I've tried with a combination of scheduled and deadlines, but the habit reappears after the deadline: * Prepare for Event DEADLINE: <2017-07-09 Sun> SCHEDULED: <2017-07-04 Tue .+1d> :PROPERTIES: :STYLE:habit :END: Editing the habit to remove the '.+1d' results in the desired behaviour, however I was hoping to avoid the manual edit.

[O] Logging the new time on a reschedule.
I would like to log the new time as well as the old when changing the scheduling or deadline of a task. I changed the value of org-log-note-headings to include the new time (%s) in the reschedule log: (reschedule . "Rescheduled from %S to %s on %t") and set org-log-reschedule to 'time. However the new time is missing from the log entry: - Rescheduled from "[2015-08-21 Fri]" to on [2015-08-19 Wed 11:03] I expected this instead: - Rescheduled from "[2015-08-29 Sat]" to "[2015-09-19 Sat]" on [2015-08-19 Wed 11:38] The cause is neither org-schedule nor org-deadline pass the the new time to org-add-log-setup. Is there a reason for this? Malcolm -- Malcolm Purvis

[O] Tangling and Exporting an Unsupported Language.
All, I'm writing an org document which contains code examples of a language not supported by Babel (a local domain specific language). The language doesn't even have a supporting Emacs mode. I'm wondering what the best portable approach is to managing the code blocks. I'm particularly interested in exporting the document to LaTeX and tangling the code. I may need to share the document with others, so I'd prefer not to require a supporting elisp file if I can help it. Currently I'm using the org language, since it seems to be the most generic: #+begin_src org :tangle foo.bar #+end_src Is there a case for 'begin_src text' to handle arbitrary content?

I assume that the cache code is trying to remove the clock information

[O] Regex Speedup for org-refresh-category-properties.
I use the master version of org, and some months ago the time required to generate my custom agenda view sky rocketed. I've found that 90% of the time was being spent in the call to re-search-forward in org-refresh-category-properties. The patch below speeds up the regular expression search and makes the generation of my agenda as fast as before.

I can confirm that the problem still exists with a freshly compiled
version of the latest mainline
(240329465b466584f4bf80f24eb881fb3c9285cf).
Also the alias org-set-transient-map doesn't seem to be called, so I
still get the error about the undefined function set-transient-map when
running Emacs 23.3.
