Thanks very much for the helpful comments and especially your  
perspective on the Journal of Statistical Software.

I'm interested to learn how you've developed a statistical workflow  
with Org-mode beyond my first tentative steps in that direction.  It  
would be great to have an example of your progress on Worg, if you can  
find the time.

All the best,
Tom
