* Time remaining report, anyone done it?

Hello all,

I have a bit of time now so I am dusting off a slightly buggy way of
finding out how much time is remaining on a project.  The basic idea is
that:

:Effort: - [total clocked time] = [time remaining before completion]

The ultimate aim is to get a "time remaining report", similar to a "clocked
time report".

Before I get too stuck in I thought I would ask: Has anyone already done
this or thought about a good way to do it (I really hope so)?

I did not but I am hoping you will manage to do it. I have already taken
a quick look into org code to understand how to do it without
success.

For what I can understand by tracing the CLOCKSUM property usage (grep
'"CLOCKSUM"' being a starting point), it seems to be doable by modifying
the org-columns and org-agenda-colview-compute defuns to set a text
property like org-clock-sum does with :org-clock-minutes. Then, the
defun org-dblock-write:clocktable should be edited to use that property.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, it does help to have a fresh starting points.

I completely forgot that I already wrote about my progress in this
venture, a year ago:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-10/msg00245.html

May be this time I will nail it.  Problem is I get it mostly working,
use it a few times, then don't use it for a while and org moves on.
