Hm, reading all the answers to this aprils fools gets me a bit worried.
Nobody seems to see the joke and everybody seems to agree that org-mode
is too bloated. 

The good thing is that all those features do not get in your way and you
can start using org-mode as a simple outliner and gradualy move up to
use it for task management, notes taking, website publishing, etc to
finally reach eternal bliss when your entire live is one with org-mode.

Ha, I for one need more features in org-mode. I have M-x
org-organize-my-live implemented in my secret git branch. Unfortunatelly
I'm still waiting for my employer disclaimer to be signed (can you
believe it). So maybe my code will be ready for inclusion by next April
1st.
