After all, most PM software just maintains a specialized kind of list. Yes I've looked at task juggler, and was impressed, but its overkill for what I need. (its also GUI!) I think the key here is that Org needs some PM-like functionality, but I certainly wouldn't advocate trying to make Org a full PM. Org is great for lists, notes, TODO's, etc. Ever try to take freeform notes in MS Project? ;] I'm interested to see where Carsten and the others take these ideas.
