[Orgmode] Keeping Your Appointments in org

[Ian Barton]

As it's the start of a new year, I want to move my appointments from 
Google Calendar as the primary source to org. When my system in org is 
running smoothly I will export to Google Calendar on a regular basis.

Searching back through the list there are quite a lot of snippets 
describing how people use org to keep appointments, but no overview. I 
would like to write a tutorial on how you can keep your appointments in 
org, so I thought that I would ask list members if they would post some 
details of their system.

I am intending to keep my appointments in a dedicated org file 
(calendar.org). At the moment I am using a remember template which adds 
them with a tag of APPT. I the use a custom agenda view if I only want 
to see appointments.

I am particularly interested in the best way to deal with repeating 
appointments. For example how do you deal with a weekly appointment that 
has a defined start and end date.
