I'm a late comer.  Just found Carston's presentation at Google.  Nice
piece of work.  Many thanks.

Unfortunately, the first thing I did failed with an "Args out of range
error".  I've worked through that (described below).  And have just
finished converting all my sticky notes to org-mode.  Label me a
convert.

The "Args out of range" error is specific to XEmacs [running 21.4
(patch 21)].  I'm running org-mode from the git repository:

$ git-describe
release_6.13a-23-g269c5a8

My first experiment consisted of:

* 1234
* 4567 Meta-Up

That deleted the second line of text and threw the args range exception
   #<buffer "xxx.org">, 0, 1

Here's the traceback:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (args-out-of-range #<buffer "xxx.org"> 0 1)
  map-extents((lambda (ex ignored) (if (< ... beg) (if ... ... ...)
(if ... ... ...))) #<buffer "xxx.org"> 0 1 nil end-closed outline)
  (save-excursion (map-extents (function ...) (current-buffer) beg end
nil (quote end-closed) (quote outline)))
  outline-discard-extents(0 1)
  outline-flag-region(0 1 nil)
  org-move-subtree-down(-1)
  org-move-subtree-up(1)
  call-interactively(org-move-subtree-up)
  org-metaup(nil)
  call-interactively(org-metaup)

Here's what I did to noutline.el to mask the issue:

diff --git a/xemacs/noutline.el b/xemacs/noutline.el
index f9ea1da..2463011 100644
--- a/xemacs/noutline.el
+++ b/xemacs/noutline.el
@@ -735,6 +735,8 @@ BEG and END default respectively to the beginning
and end of buffer."
 If FLAG is nil then text is shown, while if FLAG is t the text is hidden."
   (when (< to from)
     (setq from (prog1 to (setq to from))))
+  (when (< from (point-min))
+    (setq from (point-min)))
   ;; first clear it all out
   (outline-discard-extents from to)
   (when flag

I doubt this is a proper fix.  It likely just masks the real issue.
The line in org-move-subtree-down that called outline-flag-region with
FROM set to zero is:

    (outline-flag-region (1- (point)) (point) nil)

I haven't dug into why this isn't already reported or why it doesn't
occur with FSF Emacs.

But many thank for an excellent tool.

Fixed, thanks, in particular for the partial analysis
which helped to quickly find the problem.
