(without + detriment to supporting devs!!) + - A: There isn\'t much in terms of ongoing costs (just hosting + really), but donations are great for + dignifying the work done, indicating the value it has to the + community, motivating developers, and also helping + justify/enable more time to be spent working on Org. +- Q: What is the use of parsers in other languages? Is it to make org + available in other applications? + - A:Org is being used outside Emacs (e.g. Hugo, Logseq, rendering + on GitHub/GitLab/Gitea), and so it\'s worth trying to make sure + they treat the syntax in a consistent manner. Similarly, if + people build nice tools for Org outside Emacs, that\'s nice for + us :) + - Voit: Shameless plug: + + is also an idea to promote the syntax of Org mode in tools + outside of Emacs. After all, everybody is getting advantages + when Orgdown (syntax of Org mode; often named \"org\" but it\'s + frequently mixed up with the Elisp implementation) is a rather + popular syntax. +- Q: citar package is a really pleasant addition with support for + org-style citations. What\'s your take? + - A: Citar is great, IMO +- Q: How many hours a week do you spend contributing to org? + - A: It varies a lot. It\'s also a bit difficult to say, because + there have been a fair few patch sets which have been + \"incubated\" in my config before brining them to Org mode, and + so I need to detangle \"time spent tinkering on Org in my + config\" and \"time spent working on patches for Org mode\". + Some weeks it\'s \~0h, others it might be as much as \~30h. The + average might sit around \~5h, but that\'s just a wild guess. +- Q: As a fan of emacs org-mode and Julia myself too, do you see any + possiblities/wishes/plans to somehow connect org and julia evenmore + (apart from ob-julia). Perhaps a julia parser of org-mode, or + something like that?  Just wanna personally thank you for all the + effort in org, emacs and julia you are putting throughout! I have + learned quite a bit about doom emacs config from your blogs too. I + feel like our setup/interest overlaps quite a bit, and its always + helpful too see your work out there. Thanks again, keep up the great + work! + - A: Wait a few slides 😉 () +- Q: \"Org\", \"Org-mode\", \"org-mode\", \"Org/Org-mode\"? Which one + for the format/notation and which one for the software proper, and + then the whole thing (with org-contrib and third-party packages) vs + just the repo and major mode per se? + - A: \"Org mode\" for the project, \"org-mode\" for the major + mode, \"Org\" for the format +- Q: How much time/week do you spend editing your doom config? + - A: Err, too much 😆  + - I feel that :D +- Q:In your doom configs, you like using variables fonts and stuff, + basically a lot visuals everywhere. I feel that it makes everything + sluggish. Am I doing something wrong? Maybe there are less visible + tricks in your config? + - A: It doesn\'t make things slow enough that I care, basically. + Doom does some nice performance stuff, and I try to go for + deferred loading and look for text-properties over overlays for + performance in visual packages. As for varaible pitch fonts + look, that\'s handled by Harfbuzz not elisp AFAIK (and so + doesn\'t really affect performance). +- Q: Do you use linux or mac system?
