Hi there,
I vaguely remember someone saying here on the list that putting
timestamps in the headline is deprecated. However, I found this in the
manual:
"A timestamp can appear anywhere in the headline or body of an Org tree
entry. Its presence causes entries to be shown on specific dates in the
agenda [...]"
Which is wrong: my memory or the manual?
TIA,

My understanding of the current state of affairs is that the timestamp
can appear anywhere but *between* a heading and its PROPERTIES drawer.
That's only because nothing is supposed to come between those two.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...

from the user perspective, fwiw, in case it helps, i rely on headlines
like this. they are far better for me than date trees, because you
can sort, show them all at a glance, binary search, less chance of
corruption, no extra hierarchy, etc. they work great in my usage.

they never picked up though.

if org ever changes to not allow those, i will stick with the old org
version or carry along a patch in git. :]
