I know of: - my hacky attempt https://github.com/stsquad/async-org-babel - John Kitchen's python specific version http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2015/11/20/Asynchronously-running-python-blocks-in-org-mode/ - this matlab version http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/21301/async-execution-in-org-babel So I think there have been enough proof of concepts of using async.el and inserting results at a later date. I think what would be really useful is some feedback from the org-mode maintainers about the various approaches and if something generic could be included with org-mode itself. Any thoughts? -- Alex Bennée
