Re: Where to keep draft work?

For me the answer depends on the size of the text, and how you generate
the final report. I would probably make a link like [[./big-report.org]]
in the first section. That would make it pretty easy to have a
standalone document with headlines at whatever level is appropriate that
can be exported in the desired format.
