It's been cleaned up a lot, and a few bugs fixed. And, I have no doubt, more new ones introduced, as I have touched about half of the lines of code. So, I think it can come out of contrib now, and the website updated. I have also wound in org-learn.el. How many users that on its own I do not know, so, it's hard to know whether it needs to remain or not; regardless, org-drill is no longer a reason for keeping it. Cheers Phil
