Hello,

I'm using org-reftable.el [1] from the contrib path of the Git
repository since several months.  It is a useful addition to integrate
my personal archive of notes, data sheets, and pages that I tore out of
journals into Org Mode documents.

Now that I wanted to refine this system, I stumbled across the other
packages mentioned in the subject.  It seems that they are all revisions
of the same project from Marc Ihm.  IIUC, org-index.el is the newest
version that was preceded by org-favtable.el, org-reftable.el, and
org-refer-by-number.el.  Currently we have org-favtable.el and
org-reftable.el in the contrib path whilst org-index.el is only
available via Worg [2].
 
Marc, could you please clarify this confusion?  Anyway, thank you for
sharing this add-on!

Best regards
Michael Strey
