There is: "User-defined properties are capitalized", see http://orgmode.org/manual/Conventions.html Although for user-defined properties and at least for my private Org files I don't follow this convention and prefer all lower case. It helps me e. g. when sorting properties with locale C: Built-in properties first, User-defined last. Michael
