Thank you for writing this up. I agree with it. This discussion has taken routes which I would never have expected. We started with an interoperability topic and now we are discussing whether the intent is to take away software freedom from Emacs org users. I cannot help but to find this connection far-fetched. Nobody is suggesting to hamper org-mode-in-emacs' further development. All that was asked was if there is interest in someone outside of org-mode-in-emacs writing up “compatibility levels” for the org markup. Whether or not that is a daunting task is up to those who want to pick it up, and it certainly is not "owed" by the org developers to cater for them. If there are synergies -- there appear to be some, since the org formalising efforts do predate Karl Voit's proposal apparently -- they should be taken advantage of and not be banned from discussion on this mailing list. I do not expect the permissal of such discussions to turn this mailing list into a hub for help requests for non-org, or, heaven forbid, non-free software implementing org markup. -quintus -- Dipl.-Jur.
