** CANCELLED org-mode Fix scheduling of tasks with repeaters :CANCELLED:
CLOSED: [2010-03-09 Tue 17:43]
:PROPERTIES:
:Effort: 2:00
:END:
- State "CANCELLED" from "TODO" [2010-03-09 Tue 17:43] \\
Done by Carsten
[2009-04-09 Thu]
Tasks with a deadline date and repeater don't allow easy creation of a SCHEDULED: entry.
Error is "org-schedule: Cannot reschedule task with repeater, please do that by hand"
