In this generality: no.
The focus of muse is publishing, and that is not the focus of org-mode.

It's really flexible. Kind of like perl. It has a lot of little
nifty features that you can use to manage and organize information (to

- A lot of the code handling TODOs was written early when there were
no plain lists. That code often explicitly assumes that TODO is preceded
by the beginning of a line and a few stars. Several regular expressions
that are used all over the place implicitly make this assumption.

Hi Piotr,
thanks for sticking my head into that dark hole again :-)
Yes, the issues of headlines and plain list items have been bugging me
for a long time, and am I glad to share my thoughts here - if only to
grab this chance to organize them again. Maybe some kind of solution
will present i

[A summary of the main options for implementing GTD in Org-mode.]
I'd just like to follow this up by saying that Option 2 (TODO keywords

Hi,
In relation to Carsten's email, I'd like to ask about possible
integration of headings and plain lists. I remember that such
integration was difficult because of the implementation of
outline-mode, but I don't know the details. In case this is possible,
here are a few reasons why I'd like i
I really like this discussion started by Alex.
It has triggered for me a lot of
thinking and clarity about how to use Org-mode for a GTD system. High
time, because my current system basically is "do whatever the closest
person pointing a gun to your head is asking". Has kept me alive, if

Pete,
I'm sure you meant to reply to the list instead of just me,
so I am taking the liberty of forwarding you response to the list.
Your response makes a lot of sense .. keeping the contexts and
agendas as a set of tags allowing full taking of action items
and discussion points in the one proje
Here are some places I use for maintaining lists: org-mode files,
browser bookmarks, amazon basket, amazon wishlist, amazon recommended
books, watchthatpage, google alerts, delicious, movielens, citeulike.
Each of them is different, has its strengths and weaknesses, and it
would be very difficult

Hi,
Org-mode is a major part of my GTD scheme, however, there are some
tasks for which I think it's not ideal. One example are lists of
"lightweight" items; items that are not critical and nothing seriously
bad would happen if they are forgotten. Interesting webpages to read

Charles, Uwe, Christopher,
thank you very much for your surprisingly diverse replies! It seems
everybody is coming up with a slightly different model and I am
starting to think that using a computer rather than the folders David

I don't think there is any "best" way to use GTD system or org-mode
for that matter. One of the core principles of GTD is creating
