I'm not sure how the mailing list works. As for the below, 1) I've just spent a lot of time trying various searches at the emacs-orgmode Archives, and reading through many pages of results, but I can't find the mailing list discussion mentioned below by Nicolas. Can anyone help? Until I read that, I won't comment further on whether it was a good idea to insist that PROPERTIES and dates immediatly follow the headline. 2) If there is good code for fixing the properties drawers, why isn't it in the org-agenda-set-property function? The code there now just creates new PROPERTIES drawers, ignoring existing ones.
