Hi,
  I am just learning how to use org mode.  I am trying to run the latest
standard distribution - *org-6.05*b.  I get the following error when trying
to load it:

--- error message
Loading c:/bin/mksmin/odistr/org-6.05b/lisp/org.el (source)...
File mode specification error: (error "Required feature `mml' was not
provided")
Loading info...done
Info-index: No `mml' in index

---- end error message

(I am on a 32-bit windows machine running vista - BTW a windows upgrade
installer would be most helpful... )


---- My emacs version:
emacs-version is a variable defined in `version.el'.
Its value is "22.2.1"

-----

----- Here is the org-specific code I use in my .emacs file:

;; Org-mode settings
;; you can simply run Org directly from the distribution
;; directory by adding the lisp subdirectory to the Emacs
;; load path.  To do this, add the following line to
;; .emacs:

;;    (setq load-path (cons "~/path/to/orgdir/lisp" load-path))

;; If you plan to use code from the contrib subdirectory,
;; do a similar step for this directory:

;;     (setq load-path (cons "~/path/to/orgdir/contrib/lisp" load-path))

(setq load-path (cons (w32-short-file-name
"C:/bin/mksmin/odistr/org-6.05b/lisp") load-path))
(setq load-path (cons (w32-short-file-name
"C:/bin/mksmin/odistrs/org-6.05b/contrib/lisp") load-path))


;; The following lines are always needed.  Choose your own keys.
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org$" . org-mode))
(global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
(global-set-key "\C-cb" 'org-iswitchb)
;;
;; Furthermore, you must activate font-lock-mode in Org buffers, because
significant functionality depends on font-locking being active.
;; You can do this with either one of the following two lines
;;   (global-font-lock-mode 1)                     ; for all buffers
;;   (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)  ; Org buffers only
;;
;; (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)  ; Org buffers only

(global-font-lock-mode 1)                     ; for all buffers

;;
;; If you are using CuaMode, you might want to disable the Org Mode
keybindings for Shift+arrow keys by adding this line:
;; (setq org-CUA-compatible t)
;; With this change, the following replacements:
;;
;;
;;
;;  * S-RET --> C-S-RET
;;  * S-up --> M-p
;;  * S-down --> M-n
;;  * S-left --> M--
;;  * S-right --> M-+

(setq org-CUA-compatible t)

----------------  end of code in my .emacs file

The string "mml" does not occur anywhere in the Org distribution, so I  
have no
idea what might be causing this.  Maybe you can make a backtrace?

"The MML language is very simple. It looks a bit like an SGML application, but it's not." (emacs manual)

Please, Fritz , chek your MML installation, perhaps in your .emacs 
you don't have a 
(require ' mml) 
but you do define some fuction for it.
(setq mml-function-unknown t)

if you dig the list archives, you'll find some nice triks, 
and batch files, that have been proposed to upgrade org-mode 
under Wndws.

Cheers,
Giovanni
