I will try to use less jargon.

OK, here's a use-case. This is actually what I did right now while
recording a note that tells me to document a use-case.
* First I make a note with org-remember (C-c r)
* C-u C-c C-c to save it and go to it
* M-x org-stow-make-item-stowable
* It prompts me for a parent item. I choose
\home\tehom\projects\elisp\org-mode\doc\local\org-stow.org/org-stow/Progress/
With TAB, that's just a few keystrokes
* M-x org-stow-item
* Now there is a dblock from under "Progress" in org-stow.org that
corresponds to this note, but that dblock is still empty.
* Update dblocks
* C-u C-c C-x C-u
* You don't have to do this immediately; it will work at any time
* Now it appears in two places: In notes and under the heading "Progress".
* Can do other work on that item
* In fact, I set it to "TODO"
* Update dblocks again.
* Now the "stowed" copy says "TODO" too
* When I finish the writeup, I will come back here and set "DONE"
and update.
Another use-case:
* At this point I added this write-up as another note. So now
everything I'm doing to answer you is in notes.
* M-x org-stow-make-item-stowable
* This time I store it in
\home\tehom\projects\elisp\org-mode\doc\local\org-stow.org/org-stow/Docs/
* M-x org-stow-item, update dblocks
* Now the doc section of this file contains this item
* Finish writing it (a moment from now) and update.
So I've added to a document while just dealing with notes, and
crucially, I can retract individual notes that become obsolete.
Take care,
Tom Breton (Tehom)
