>=20

In my org 7.7 manual, in section "7.2 Special properties", DEADLINE is
defined as a (special) property.

By the way, consider the following example:

* TODO parent
  DEADLINE: <2011-12-31 Sat>
** TODO child A
** TODO child B
   DEADLINE: <2011-11-30 Wed>
** TODO child C

In my workflow, to mark "parent" as DONE i have to complete "child" A,B
and C. And it would be nice to have child A and C inherit the DEADLINE
from the parent, and to show up in the agenda. Any idea?
