Hello,
A quick question about the future of the exporters:
when the new exporter will be (more) integrated into Org,
- will the old ones be removed?
- will the packages be renamed?
- will the variables be renamed (for example, from
`org-e-html-preamble-format' to `org-html-preamble-format')?
Just to know whether we have to duplicate variables during this transition
period (if we want to use both with the same outputs) or not.
Best regards,
Seb

No. When they are ready, they will completely replace old
exporters. Only old exporters with no equivalent back-end for new export
engine will be preserved.

You may want to send your word count function so we can see how you can
integrate it in the new exporter engine.
About Emacs 22, I cannot help much as I have uninstalled it years
ago. Since there is no exotic code in org-export.el, solving the problem
could be as simple as adding a defalias in org-compat.el. But you'll
have to debug it yourself.
