As I am as well *learning* Org-babel and its satellites (R, GNU screen, etc.),
I'm wondering if there is one of the two above syntaxes that gets more chance
to be the survivor -- would there be a war between both ;-)

I mean: I'm not yet attached to any of the two. Which one should I use better,
ensuring more portability over time?  Or are these both totally equivalent,
and will it stay so for the coming years?

Best regards,
  Seb
