I use org for the usual notes-to-self and TODO - nothing super fancy. I had been running from master of the git repo, but in 2013-01 stopped updating, probably because I had some issue. The recent release provoked me to try again, and this note reports some issues. I had been running (for no really good reason) commit 3a1c27060792fc095435efcaf270a6207d5d8d27 Author: Bastien Guerry Date: Mon Jan 7 00:25:58 2013 +0100 and just updated to the head of maint: commit 1fa6ccab10c9f97dc9317f9c3eedea82c4cdc357 Author: Bastien Guerry Date: Tue Apr 22 15:24:14 2014 +0200 which is just a docstring fix past release_8.2.6. I then did an org-mobile-push, and that was as fast as I remembered. I noticed two things: Exporting to ical as a single file took a really long time, perhaps a whole minute, whereas it used to take a second to a few seconds. The resulting export did seem ok. I used to get an ID PROPERTIES entries for nodes that were exported to the calendar, which was basically nodes that had an active timestamp. But now I had a huge number of changes, adding ID to every node, even those with no real content and just children. Is this a feature?
