I'm trying to create a weekly report of items completed or
outstanding. I'd like to bucket these by status. I've got my entries
with a DEADLINE calendar date set.
For example given the org input:
* TODO Fix bug for software project X
DEADLINE: <2011-02-07 Mon>
* DONE Update documentation for feature Y
DEADLINE: <2011-02-09 Wed>
* DONE Scope out new version of Z
DEADLINE: <2011-02-09 Wed>
* TODO Code new version of Z
DEADLINE: <2011-02-17 Thu>
I'd like to bucketize these based on the current date TODO status. If
the date is 2/11/2011, based on the deadline and the status I'd like
to see:
Missed:
2011-02-07: Fix bug for software project X
Completed:
2011-02-09: Update documentation for feature Y
2011-02-09: Scope out new version of Z
Coming up:
2011-02-17: Code new version of Z
Am I best using an agenda view to create this? Or would this be in a
custom exporter?
thanks!

This is a great idea, and one I would use myself. I don't think you
could configure the agenda to build something like that though, I'd
say we'd need to come up with some custom elisp code or a script that
parses the org archive file and does the dirty job.

I'm a bit of a newbie to org-mode, so where should I start to look at
this? Is there existing functionality in either org-agenda or
org-export that would be a good starting point?

I do this for generating work reports, but all I do is
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-log-done 'time)
(setq org-log-state-notes-into-drawer t)
#+end_src
To enable logging (second line is to prevent cluttering things up)
Then in the agenda:
press "v l" to enable logging
press "v a" to enable archived trees
press "b" to go back a week.
It also helps that I have
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
; Start weekly view from present day
(setq org-agenda-start-on-weekday nil)
#+end_src
set so that the agenda starts on the current day.
I usually end up generating reports for the last two weeks... I've
considered looking to see if there's a way to set up agenda commands to
generate a list of the last two weeks' tasks so I didn't have to press
back twice, but I haven't tried yet :)
Does that help?

Christopher, thank you very much!
Although I have been using org for quite some time, I never really
spend time going through the manual and learning all the nuances of
the agenda, and I often forget how powerful it is.
It would really nice if we had an agenda command to export all of this
as a PDF report, for example.
Cheers,
Marcelo.

It's a good read :)

You can export agendas as PDF by writing them to .pdf files.
See section 10.5 in the manual: "Commands in the agenda buffer"
`C-x C-w (`org-write-agenda')'
Write the agenda view to a file. Depending on the extension of
the selected file name, the view will be exported as HTML
(extension `.html' or `.htm'), Postscript (extension `.ps'), PDF
(extension `.pdf'), and plain text (any other extension). When
called with a `C-u' prefix argument, immediately open the newly
created file. Use the variable `org-agenda-exporter-settings' to
set options for `ps-print' and for `htmlize' to be used during
export.
HTH,
