This made me think, although not exactly what James is expecting but it might be possible to package a minimal Emacs distribution with the latest stable org-mode included as an alternate download. It could supply some skeleton files which would be used as default customisations and extended as the user grows in lisp proficiency. Pretty much the same as `emacs -Q -l minimal-org.el'. This could be offered as a download on the home page for non-techie users. I would expect having a download only for Windows and OS X should suffice since Linux users already have Emacs (with some version of org-mode) from their respective repositories. Is that an idea worth pursuing? -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
