I thought that this information in the stack report would be enough:
Identifier: org.gnu.Emacs
Version: Version 23.3 (9.0)
OS Version: Mac OS X 10.7 (11A511)
It's the version from http://emacsformacosx.com/
What else should I send?

A script to convert the internal database of OmniFocus to org-mode
with minimal metadata loss. In particular, it maintains repeating
events and multi-line notes fields.

Any idea what's likely to be my problem?
