It does seem somewhat stalled, but it does seem to work once you get it set up. I hope I can find time to work on it in the future. It could use the following: 1. Further details in the documentation. 2. A better description of what MobileOrg can and cannot do. 3. Simpler data entry/update methods (perhaps Siri?). 4. Exchange between iPhone outliners and MobileOrg. Overall, for managing your life, I see very little better than Org especially if you are used to working with Emacs. And Org is free and always improving (as is obvious from this newsgroup). The one issue that has been holding me back was accessing and updating my tasks and overall "life outlines" from my iPhone which is always with me. MobileOrg begins to address that, but I have a lot to learn on using both. -- David Masterson Programmer At Large
