No you are not doing anything wrong.
What happens is that:

1. I have not implemented links.  This should be easy
   to fix and I will do this when I get home.
2. Similarly for the <span> element.   However I do not
   exactly know what the corresponding Org syntax should be?
   Would you expect:

   /world/
   /foo/

   Or is there a structured element in org mode that renders
   a block as italics?

I will see what I can do about point 2.

In general, I am a bit torn between:

- faithful transformation.
- Getting readable org source.

I am leaning towards the readable org source and
sacrificing the faithfulness.
