Hi, Joseph,
(I cc'ed also Bernt Hansen, aka "the king of clocking" ;-)
maybe he has better ideas; he's more experience than me, for sure ;)

When you can back from a meeting you can resolve idel time
[[info:org#Resolving%20idle%20time][info:org#Resolving idle time]]
If you changed your task but you forgot to clock outyou should check:
[[info:org#Clocking%20commands][info:org#Clocking commands]]
(`org-clock-in-last')'
Reclock the last clocked task. With one `C-u' prefix argument,
select the task from the clock history. With two `C-u' prefixes,
force continuous clocking by starting the clock when the last clock
stopped.
Be careful to have a recent git version since this is a new feature, but it had bugs and
the bugs have been fixed.
Other thoughts:
You can change the time from the agenda (never tried) but:
[[info:org#Agenda%20commands][info:org#Agenda commands]]
`v c'
Show overlapping clock entries, clocking gaps, and other clocking
problems in the current agenda range. You can then visit clocking
lines and fix them manually. See the variable
`org-agenda-clock-consistency-checks' for information on how to
customize the definition of what constituted a clocking problem.
To return to normal agenda display, press `l' to exit Logbook mode.
Finally you can also use the brute force method:
clock in the new task
then run
M-x org-resolve-clocks
so that you can "restart" your current task by, say, 20 minutes
then you can set
(defcustom org-clock-out-remove-zero-time-clocks t
"Non-nil means remove the clock line when the resulting time is zero."
:group 'org-clock
:type 'boolean)
However the last clocked-out task (the meeting) has been clocked out 20 minutes later.
cheers,
Giovanni
