Hello, the short question is: how can I easily unschedule a task when in the agenda view? C-c C-s allows me to re-schedule (as do shifted arrow keys) but sometimes I simply want to remove the schedule entry for the item.
(only read the following if you wish to know about my GTD approach) The longer motivating reason for wanting this is that the need arises from how I handle my list of todo items. In my default TODO sequence, one of the entries is WAITING (aka delegated to somebody else, the one benefit of having a team of people working for me ;-). When I switch a todo item to this state from TODO or INPROGRESS, where I had scheduled the activity for some date (usually the current date), I would like to unschedule it. The activity is now somebody else's responsibility for the time being so I don't want to have it visible! (I may still have a deadline attached to it, of course). John Wiegley's tutorial (which is excellent!) addresses the issue of delegation by scheduling the task for himself to remind him to ping the person responsible for the task now. I could do this (and do do this sometimes) but I would rather not in general. I've gone through the manual, the mailing list and the other tutorials but have missed any easy solution to this. Obviously, I can simply visit the item in the org file and delete the schedule entry but I'm always loathe to leave the agenda view if I don't have to! Ideally, it would be nice if one could attach actions (beyond logbook recording) to todo state changes, actions like "unschedule this item when switching to WAITING state" and I'm sure there are others... but having this capability is not critical of course.
