Hi!
How can I refer to an ID in another Org-mode file (withing the same
folder)?
,----[ file:foo.org ]
| * This is interesting
| :PROPERTIES:
| :ID: interesting
| :END:
`----
,----[ file:bar.org ]
| I would like you to point to id:foo.org#interesting
`----
The link like this does not (yet) work. How can I accomplish this?
I was searching in the Org-mode manual but could not find any
solution for my problem. Either this is not possible or I could not
find the (existing) solution yet.

This should work:
[[id:interesting][Description]]

Wow, this worked indeed! I assumed that this would work only within
files of org-agenda-files.
Thanks!

Sorry, I was not searching good enough. Shame on me :-(
In this case, that method is exactly what I need:
file:README.org::*foobar
Since GitHub's interpretation of Org-mode files is not that
perfect I want to avoid drawers containing IDs at all.[1]
The more I am using Org-mode the more I see its beauty :-)

You don't need to type this manually. Use org-store-link (usually "C-c l")
in a sub-tree to store the link (it uses the sub-tree's id - it will ever
create an id if there isn't one already). Then use org-insert-link (usually
"C-c C-l") to insert the link.
