Interesting, this Emacs distribution removed Org a few days ago. I'm not
certain why the distributor refers to this as "a rather drastic
measure." From my perspective as a user, whose interests required using
the git version of Org from the beginning, the Emacs distribution of Org
has been nothing but trouble, leading to perplexing (for me) problems
with mixed installs that I would rather have avoided.
I've enjoyed reading the mailing list for the last two or three years
and in that time can only remember a few times that the Org that ships
with Emacs was recommended. Typically, advice on the list recommends
using the git version, instead.
Installation of the git version is *easy* now, even for someone with my
limited skills. I didn't have any luck with the ELPA version when it
first came out, but the ELPA system works great and it seems like an
ideal channel to distribute Org. So, even a user like me has very little
difficulty using a non-Emacs version of Org.
I'm sure there are reasons for wanting Org to be distributed with Emacs.
Would it be OK for me to ask on the list what they are?
All the best,
Tom
