It is valid in current parser implementation, but it is not what you
expect. The first time range is ignored.

Hmm. What about this:
<2023-06-05 Mon>--<2023-06-08 Thu 10:30-12:15>
Is there a recommended specification for my meeting? Or do I have to
break it into multiple tasks (one for each day)?
Anyone know how well BeOrg, Orgzly, and Organice handle this?

AFAIK, closed date intervals with time are currently not supported by
org-agenda. You can instead use diary sexp timestamps, a bunch of active
timestamps in the body, or M-x org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift

No idea.

"a bunch of active timestamps"?!? Ooh! I hadn't gotten the impression
that that was allowed from the "Dates and Times" section of the manual.
It always talked about "a timestamp" and it made sense to me that a task
would only have one timestamp. Can a statement be added to the manual
to make this explicit?
By closed date interval, I assume you mean "<time1>--<time2>". That is
mentioned in 8.1 of the manual. It's header is "Time/Date range", but it
only talks about dates (no times) including in the example. If times
are allowed, then the paragraph could include a time example. If not,
then the header should be changed and "timestamp" should be changed to
"datestamp".

Handling of date intervals when TIME1/2 have time specifications is
undefined behaviour for now. And I am not in favour of making it defined -
we may consider using this semantics to define repeater intervals with
end date in future. That would allow what you attempted to do in the
original email, but using <2023-06-05 Mon 10:30-12:15>--<2023-06-08 Thu>

No. The same section talks about time range: <2006-11-02 Thu 10:00-12:00>
"Timestamp" is the general term we use. We make it explicit in the
parent section that timestamps may or may not have time specification:
A timestamp is a specification of a date (possibly with a time) in a
special format, either =<2003-09-16 Tue>= or
=<2003-09-16 Tue 09:39>=

Maybe I'm not explicit enough. In section 8.1 of the Org 9.6 manual is
a subsection "Time/Date Range" that *implies* times are supported in
ranges by the use of words "time" and "timestamp" when, above, you're
saying they are undefined (unsupported?) for now. I'm merely saying
adjust the manual to remove the implication.

Please check the manual from main branch of Org. It has more text:
- Time/Date range ::
#+cindex: timerange
#+cindex: date range
Two timestamps connected by =--= denote a range. In the agenda, the
headline is shown on the first and last day of the range, and on any
dates that are displayed and fall in the range. Here is an example:

Yes. Though it would be better to attach the diff with proper (.diff or
.patch) extension.
Even better would be providing commit message and formatting the patch
properly. See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#first-patch
Not mandatory though - I can format things properly on your behalf.

I'd avoid this NOTE. Time is actually allowed, but agenda does nothing
with it. But only agenda. The rest of Org will handle date ranges like
<2023-06-10 Sat 14:00>--<2023-06-12 Mon 18:00> correctly.

I hope you saw that I provided a "patch,txt" file in a following message

Thank you. I haven't "patched" anything on Savannah and assumed I might
have to do the GNU copyright assignment. For this, I thought it would
be easy for you.

No, there isn't. I think what happened here is that I noticed section
8.1 in org-guide and org-manual were almost (but not quite) the same. I
assumed (incorrectly?) that they were supposed to be the same, but got
out of sync. So I made my patch to org-guide and then replaced section
8.1 in org-manual with the one from org-guide. I think these "cindex"
statements got dropped because of that. If they are important in
org-manual, but not org-guide, then please put them back.

Oh! Another difference between org-guide and org-manual that came over
in trying to resync the two.

Again, another diff between org-guide and org-manual, :-\
I'm relooking at this patch. Testing finds that these work in the
timegrid agenda as expected:
* <2023-02-03 Thu 10:00-11:00>--<2023-02-04 Fri 10:00-11:00>
** Can't mark one done -- you have to mark them all done
*** Kind of expected for this form
* <2023-02-03 Thu 10:00-11:00 +1d>
** Can you limit the number of repeats? If so, how?
** Marking it DONE removes current one from agenda
*** reasonable
I have to rethink section 8.1. With the above in mind, 8.1 is not quite
right, but it's more subtle than I thought. Not sure how in the weeds
it should get for a user's manual.

I've updated my patch file taking into account what you mentioned and

Yes and no. One of the things you get to do when creating a proper patch
is commit message describing the changes in detail. This helps to review
your own changes and often helps with silly typos.
So, it is generally not hard for me to write the commit message on your
behalf, but if you do it yourself, it generally makes life easier for me
when reviewing changes.
As for copyright assignment, it does not matter if you provide a diff or
patch - the work is yours and it is a subject of copyright rules we use.
<=15LOC of non-trivial changes does not require copyright assignment.

Well. They are kind of out of sync. But the org-guide is not supposed to
be exact copy of the manual - the guide only contains the most important
parts. That's why footnotes are dropped.
For cindex entries, they are not needed in the guide. #+cindex and
similar keywords are just anchors to build concept/variable/command
index in the manual. We do not have such index in the guide.

This is a valid out-of-sync entry. I updated the guide now.

Only using diary sexp. Limiting the repeater intervals is one of the
feature requests we have.

I miss the point here. You changed the last sentence to mention time,
but the "following" example does not specify the time (<%%(diary-float t 4 2)>).

Mostly changing the statement from singular to plural to imply that more
than one timestamp can be in a TODO item (SCHEDULED, DEADLINE, multiple
plain timestamps) w/o directly mentioning how (leave that for later
examples in the chapter).

There are a couple in the diary timestamp section already, but this can
be dropped if wrong.

In testing, I found the following:
* TODO summer school
<2023-06-05 Mon 10:30-12:15>--<2023-06-08 Thu 10:30-12:15>
This shows in my timegrid agenda for the week for Mon, Tue, Wed, & Thu
on the specified time range. Interestingly, each agenda item had a
"(n/4)" on it (n=1 to 4). Also, if you mark any of the 4 as DONE, then
all change to DONE (which you kind of expect for this style).
Is this being done by an add-on package? I have these, but most of them
are not setup:

I think you're looking at the patch file, so you're not seeing the line
before the 'diary' line which has a time of 22:00-23:00 on it. I don't
use 'diary-float', so did I misinterpret the example? If so, drop the
"and time". The main purpose was to add in "hours" after N.

I am mostly questioning "for purposes described in this chapter".
All the TODO items can be labelled with multiple dates/times, not just in
"this chapter".

Most likely, they are there by mistake.
The guide should be short enough to not require index.

No. I meant that presence of time has no effect on whether an entry
appear in agenda or not. Once agenda decides that an entry should
appear, the time is taken into account when formatting the display.
You modified the manual to "Its presence causes entries to be shown on
specific dates/times in the agenda". There is no concept of "shown on
specific time" in agenda views. Just "shown on specific day".

"22:00-23:00" has no relation to timestamps.
Agenda still accounts for it because of
`org-agenda-search-headline-for-time', but this part of the manual is
talking about timestamps, not agenda extras. The diary timestamp does
not set the time.

I see. I'm trying to say that the rest of this chapter describes how,
where and why you would use dates/times in an Org file. For example,
the Timestamps subchapter describes what a timestamp looks like and that
it can be used in any header or paragraph in an Org file and how the
timestamp affects the agenda.

Maybe add a short second paragraph summarizing about timestamps,
scheduled, deadlines, and clocking? That's what people commonly do in
literature.

Would you mind updating the patch?
If you do not use magit, you can easily re-create patches for a given
file from Emacs using
M-x vc-diff <RET> M-x write-file <RET> /path/to/your.path <RET>

I do use magit, but I'm not good with it. In particular, I wanted to
walk thru my changes with EDiff, but, when ediff brought up the buffers,
the buffers were in org-mode and everything was folded and I didn't see
how to tell ediff to not fold so I could see the diffs.

Usually, the diff provided in M-x magit-status is good enough.
You could also use M-x org-show-all to unfold everything.

IMHO, this is just creating confusion.
Remember that this manual/guide is going to be read by people who are
not yet familiar with Org mode terminology. What is "timestamp on an
event"? What if you put a timestamp on a non-event? What is "clocking
time"?

Why event? What about tasks? Can just use more general "heading" or "entry".

Ok. I did use "like". ;-)
I don't want to get too in the weeds (because I don't know it all), so
how about:

tracking time spent on a task ...

What about:
To assist project planning, TODO items can be labeled with a date
and/or a time. The specially formatted string carrying the date and
time information is called a /timestamp/ in Org mode. This may be
a little confusing because timestamp is often used as indicating when
something was created or last changed. However, in Org mode this term
is used in a much wider sense.
Timestamps can be used to plan appointments, schedule tasks, set
deadlines, track time, and more. The following sections describe
the timestamp format and tooling that Org mode provides for common
use cases dealing with time and time intervals.

I agree with your change. I'm often minimalist in my changes (especially when
I'm trying not to rock the boat), but that's not always good. If that's
it, make the change in both files and we can call it a day. :-)

May you please re-create the patch for the current main?

Ok. See below.
Minor question -- I've used Ediff in the past, but I now see diff-mode
in Emacs. I get the idea of it (I think I used an early version of it
in the deep past), but wonder if I am seeing a bug in it. In the diff
file below, there is a few mentions of "=--=" in separating timestamps
in a date/time range. When I view the diff file in Diff mode, a couple
on those strings show up and a couple do not. I had to check the file
with 'less' to make sure the diff file was intact. Switching from
unified to context view didn't change this.
Am I missing an option in diff mode or is this a bug around handling
this particular string?

Thanks!
See the attached final draft.
I amended removals of cindex entries in the manual - redundancy will not
hurt here (for better searchability).
I also slightly adjusted the wording and fixed list indentation in
one of description list items.
Finally, I detailed all the changes in the commit message and added
TINYCHANGE cookie.
Let me know if you are ok with this version.

I suspect that it is greedy fontification. =--= is a part of diff
syntax, AFAIK. May report is as a bug to Emacs.

Subject: [PATCH] org-manual, org-guide: Improve timestamp documentation
* doc/org-manual.org (Dates and Times): Explain the purpose of
timestamps in the opening paragraphs.
(Timestamps): Mention that time range. Clarify that an entry may
contain multiple timestamps, providing an example. Explain formal
time range meaning, with example. Add cindex entry "time range". Add
date range example.
* doc/org-guide.org: Syncronoize changes with org-manual, adding some
missing pieces.
(Timestamps): Remove useless cindex entries (org-guide does not
produce index).

One minor note -- I think of datestamp & timestamp as one word each
while 'date range' & 'time range' are two words each. Unless you've got
other reasons, I'd follow this convention. I think I see one 'cindex'
that has 'timerange'.

You got the number via some 'git' command?? If I get to doing more, I
will do the copyright assignment -- I just never thought I'd make much
changes.

In message-mode:
C-c C-a runs the command mml-attach-file (found in message-mode-map),
which is an autoloaded interactive native-compiled Lisp function in
‘mml.el’.
It is bound to C-c RET f and C-c C-a.

I left the incorrectly spelled 'timerange' cindex entry on purpose.
In Org, we have variables `org-agenda-timerange-leaders' and
`org-agenda-remove-timeranges-from-blocks'. So, in Info-mode, some
people may search index for 'timerange' instead of 'time range'. Again,

I now applied to patch onto main.

Not exactly. There is git command to find total number of changed LOCs:
<https://github.com/yantar92/emacs-config/blob/master/config.org#detect-fsf-contribution-status-of-sender-for-org-ml>
(shell-command-to-string
(format "cd ~/Git/org-mode/; git log --author=\"%s\" --pretty=tformat: --numstat main | gawk '{ add += $1; subs += $2; loc += $1 - $2 } END { printf \"+l: %%s -l: %%s total: %%s\", add, subs, loc }' -"
(downcase (if (string-match-p email all-committers)
email sender))))
However, it will count all the LOCs, not just non-trivial.
By raw number of LOCs, your patch is indeed over 15LOC. However, part of
the patch is my text or syncing org-manual and org-guide texts. Those
changes are trivial.
So, I judged that the patch is still acceptable without FSF assignment.
But it will be the limit.

I used C-c C-a to attach my patch to the message for you. I was looking
for the reverse to pull your patch out. When I read the message, the
patch was inlined, so I wasn't seeing any buttons(?) to pull it out with
and the Mime command didn't seem to do anything, so I thought I was
looking in the wrong. The patch showed in diff-mode.

Whoa.

It may depend on what you are using to view the patch.
In notmuch, there is `notmuch-show-save-part' and `notmuch-save-attachments'.
In Gnus, there is `notmuch-show-save-part'.

Hmm. I think notmuch is non-standard. I was using gnus.
