Please don't take my note as a complaint, it was intended only as a
sympathetic groan.  I well understand that Org is all-volunteer effort,
and I have the deepest appreciation for and admiration of all involved.
Emacs and Org have transformed my life!

All the same ... when I'm working on something at three in the morning,
and I *know* I saw (and saved) a bit of information, and the sitemap and
the index and even Google just shrug their shoulders.... I would have
been happy to add publicity for the information myself, if I could have
just found it!

I have not yet sent my public key to Bastien to become a Worg
contributor, but I expect to soon.

I'm pretty sure that's a given. :-)

Hmm.  I don't see it on the website, but it probably just hasn't been
rebuilt yet, and I don't know where you might have added the index
entry.  In the most recent pull from Worg, however, I see that Bastien
has started an Org-8.0 document.  That will be a big help.

Thanks to you and everyone for your contributions.

All the best,
