Historically, we've just directed everybody + +00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:14.199 +who's interested in financially supporting the Org project + +00:02:14.200 --> 00:02:18.639 +to the maintainer Bastien's personal GitHub sponsors + +00:02:18.640 --> 00:02:22.399 +and LibrePay accounts. Now, early this year, + +00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.519 +Bastion has created the Librepay Org mode team account, + +00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:29.039 +which means that you can actually now + +00:02:29.040 --> 00:02:33.159 +support the Org project as opposed to + +00:02:33.160 --> 00:02:34.479 +the person leading the Org project. + +00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:39.159 +Currently, this just distributes donations between Bastien, + +00:02:39.160 --> 00:02:42.079 +Ihor, and myself. However, the idea is that + +00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:45.039 +as the active contributors for the Org project + +00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:50.839 +come and go over time, the list of people on this team + +00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:56.999 +can be changed as seems sensible. The hope here is that + +00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:00.159 +it will simplify both how easy it is + +00:03:00.160 --> 00:03:02.559 +to actually financially support the Org project + +00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.359 +as well as how easily people contributing + +00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:09.599 +to the Org project can be supported. + +00:03:09.600 --> 00:03:13.479 +If you're interested in supporting the Org project, + +00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:15.439 +there's never been a better time than now + +00:03:15.440 --> 00:03:16.919 +to have a look at this + +00:03:16.920 --> 00:03:23.159 +and let anybody who might also might be interested know. + +00:03:23.160 --> 00:03:25.279 +Hopefully, this leads to a healthier funding structure + +00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:28.199 +that will scale better into the long term + +00:03:28.200 --> 00:03:32.559 +and thus better support the work that happens with Org. + +NOTE New features + +00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:37.079 +Now, the project itself has of course also seen quite a bit + +00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:38.519 +of development over the past year. + +00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:44.159 +We've had about 800 comments from 80 contributors. + +00:03:44.160 --> 00:03:46.519 +Within these comments, there's been a lot of polishing + +00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:48.759 +quality-of-life improvements, + +00:03:48.760 --> 00:03:50.519 +and also quite a few new features. + +00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:52.799 +Now, I haven't got nearly enough time + +00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:54.159 +to go through this exhaustively, + +00:03:54.160 --> 00:03:58.639 +so we're just going to go through a quick highlight reel. + +NOTE An assortment of export improvements + +00:03:58.640 --> 00:04:00.239 +There's a collection of export improvements + +00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:04.319 +from things which affect all export backends, + +00:04:04.320 --> 00:04:07.319 +like including remote content + +00:04:07.320 --> 00:04:09.599 +and adding new things like DOI links + +00:04:09.600 --> 00:04:11.519 +and support for encrypted Org files, + +00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.679 +as well as a whole lot of export-backend-specific changes. + +00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:17.159 +For example, quite a few backends-- + +00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:18.519 +I've mentioned the LaTeX one here, + +00:04:18.520 --> 00:04:23.119 +but also others such as Texinfo--have now got + +00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.799 +rich support for various types of attributes and objects. + +00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:31.919 +The HTML backend has had a few things boosted up and well, + +00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:33.519 +if you want to see the full list, + +00:04:33.520 --> 00:04:36.519 +just take a look at the release notes. + +NOTE A collection of babel improvements + +00:04:36.520 --> 00:04:39.319 +We've also seen a similar collection of improvements + +00:04:39.320 --> 00:04:43.519 +with the Babel backends. Once again, this is scattered-- + +00:04:43.520 --> 00:04:46.519 +or well, it can be split into two sets of changes. + +00:04:46.520 --> 00:04:49.599 +There's some which affect all of Babel, essentially. + +00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:52.599 +For instance, the new syntax of parsing + +00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:56.479 +the raw content of code blocks, or the changes with Noweb. + +00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:01.919 +For example, :noweb-prefix is a new option that can be used. + +00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:03.239 +And then there's also a collection + +00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:07.439 +of backend-specific changes. So ASCII graphics with PlantUML + +00:05:07.440 --> 00:05:12.279 +or enhanced return capabilities with the ob-python library. + +NOTE A multitude of general org-mode improvements + +00:05:12.280 --> 00:05:17.479 +And then of course, as before, a whole collection + +00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.839 +of more changes which you can find in the release notes. + +00:05:19.840 --> 00:05:22.839 +Last but by no means least, + +00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:26.239 +there have been quite a few changes within the rest of Org. + +00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.839 +So this is, once again, far too many things to list, + +00:05:30.840 --> 00:05:33.759 +but it's things like improved refiling, + +00:05:33.760 --> 00:05:36.639 +capture templates, image preview sizing, + +00:05:36.640 --> 00:05:38.159 +clocktable settings, agenda tweaks, + +00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:41.159 +and well, a whole lot more. + +00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:45.039 +Yes, basically, the essence of what's here + +00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:47.999 +is a lot of little changes + +00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.799 +which just address particular use cases in ways + +00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:55.052 +that I don't think anybody's going to be seeing + +00:05:55.053 --> 00:05:55.786 +the impact of all of them, + +00:05:55.787 --> 00:05:57.559 +but I think most people should at least + +00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:00.119 +find one or two things + +00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:04.159 +which actually improve their own usage. + +NOTE Citations + +00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:06.079 +Now these are the sort of assorted + +00:06:06.080 --> 00:06:07.399 +relatively minor improvements, + +00:06:07.400 --> 00:06:09.959 +but there are also some major ones. + +00:06:09.960 --> 00:06:12.159 +And one in particular, citations. + +00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:15.879 +So I think this has been, at this point, + +00:06:15.880 --> 00:06:17.079 +over a decade in the making, + +00:06:17.080 --> 00:06:21.919 +but Org finally has first-class support for citations. + +00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:23.759 +And I have to say, it is marvellous. + +00:06:23.760 --> 00:06:27.239 +You'd hope so, after the labour. I think it is. + +00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.119 +It can be said that it's actually worth the wait. + +00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:31.679 +I think out of the various options you've got now, + +00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:34.279 +(for example, the way that Pandoc + +00:06:34.280 --> 00:06:35.599 +and Markdown otherwise[??] do it) + +00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:40.519 +Org has a fantastically succinct and flexible + +00:06:40.520 --> 00:06:45.959 +syntax for citations, which scales really well for all sorts + +00:06:45.960 --> 00:06:47.199 +of different use cases. + +00:06:47.200 --> 00:06:51.159 +Additionally, on the backend side of things, + +00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:55.359 +we've now got a generalised way for handling citations + +00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.839 +which has been quite helpful for the--I think + +00:06:57.840 --> 00:07:00.359 +I could say rather rapid development + +00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:03.279 +of multiple citation backends for Org. + +00:07:03.280 --> 00:07:07.639 +And I think it's just fantastic, really, seeing + +00:07:07.640 --> 00:07:09.839 +how quickly Org has gone + +00:07:09.840 --> 00:07:12.239 +from having no support for citations + +00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:13.239 +at the start of this year + +00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:17.559 +to what can be described as + +00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:20.199 +a wonderfully rich and flexible support + +00:07:20.200 --> 00:07:23.559 +with, well, multiple backends for citations. + +00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:27.519 +I think that's something that we can really be proud of. + +00:07:27.520 --> 00:07:30.039 +And it's been a fantastic contribution + +00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:31.599 +for everybody involved in this process. + +NOTE Quality of life improvements + +00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:36.119 +Okay, so we've had features. + +00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:38.039 +There have also been a whole lot of + +00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:39.559 +quality of life improvements. + +00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:43.479 +Once again, many more than I can reasonably mention here. + +00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.079 +So I'm just going to flick it through + +00:07:46.080 --> 00:07:48.319 +a few of them. A few big ones though, + +NOTE Org fold + +00:07:48.320 --> 00:07:52.519 +Ihor is responsible for three lovely developments with Org, + +00:07:52.520 --> 00:07:55.119 +one of which is Org fold. So this is a generalisation + +00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:57.239 +of the way that content is folded in Org. + +00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.679 +And I think quite a few of you will actually underestimate + +00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:01.679 +how much can be folded in Org. + +00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:03.039 +It's not just a matter of headlines. + +00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:07.919 +It's headlines, code blocks, lists, environments, + +00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:10.519 +all sorts of things can actually be folded in Org. + +00:08:10.520 --> 00:08:14.679 +And the introduction of Org fold is important + +00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:18.919 +for two reasons. One is that it has allowed for + +00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:21.479 +text-property-based folding, + +00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:24.479 +which in Emacs versions less than 29 + +00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:27.719 +has a huge difference in performance, + +00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:29.959 +which is particularly apparent with larger files. + +00:08:29.960 --> 00:08:32.639 +The second significant thing about this is that + +00:08:32.640 --> 00:08:36.479 +it now actually provides a more general way + +00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:39.879 +to actually describe changes to the folding structure. + +00:08:39.880 --> 00:08:42.559 +So before there was direct modification of + +00:08:42.560 --> 00:08:45.959 +messing with overlays scattered around the Org code base. + +00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:49.399 +Now we have a much more well organised system + +00:08:49.400 --> 00:08:53.319 +where we use Org fold to say what is and isn't folded + +00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:54.799 +and to manage the state of all of that, + +00:08:54.800 --> 00:08:59.239 +which is, I think, just from a sort of design, + +00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:02.479 +sort of project design approach, a much better system. + +NOTE Org element cache + +00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:06.599 +We've also got the Org element cache by Ihor. + +00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:09.239 +This is actually something which was discussed + +00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:12.039 +quite a while ago, but has somewhat stalled + +00:09:12.040 --> 00:09:14.679 +due to the difficulty of cache invalidation. + +00:09:14.680 --> 00:09:17.279 +Ihor has sunk a tremendous amount of effort into this + +00:09:17.280 --> 00:09:19.759 +and has improved it to the point + +00:09:19.760 --> 00:09:21.799 +where we've now actually been able to + +00:09:21.800 --> 00:09:25.639 +enable this by default. So what this basically does is + +00:09:25.640 --> 00:09:27.999 +it records lots of information + +00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:30.159 +about the structure of the Org document + +00:09:30.160 --> 00:09:34.119 +and allows for, well, with the appropriate modifications + +00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:37.359 +that Ihor has also made throughout the Org element library + +00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:41.559 +to use this information to speed up various operations + +00:09:41.560 --> 00:09:44.879 +based on the Org document syntax tree. + +00:09:44.880 --> 00:09:48.279 +And so this has been quite-- + +00:09:48.280 --> 00:09:49.839 +the improvements have been scattered all over the place, + +00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:52.719 +but for a good example for libraries + +00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:57.719 +or anybody who's wanting to quickly map over Org elements + +00:09:57.720 --> 00:10:00.639 +is `org-element-cache-map', which now provides + +00:10:00.640 --> 00:10:04.559 +a much, much faster way to map over + +00:10:04.560 --> 00:10:07.359 +all of the Org elements in a document. + +NOTE Org persist + +00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:10.799 +This also ties into the third major feature from Ihor + +00:10:10.800 --> 00:10:13.919 +which I'd like to mention, which is Org persist. + +00:10:13.920 --> 00:10:17.959 +So this provides a method of persisting values + +00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:20.279 +across Emacs sessions, basically saving them + +00:10:20.280 --> 00:10:21.799 +to a file somewhere and loading them. + +00:10:21.800 --> 00:10:25.719 +Now this works for Elisp values and it also works for files, + +00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:29.679 +which we made use of with the improved capabilities + +00:10:29.680 --> 00:10:32.479 +for remote files and exports. + +00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:35.799 +This has also been used with the `org-element-cache' data. + +00:10:35.800 --> 00:10:37.479 +So now, if you've got a massive Org file + +00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:41.159 +and you open it once, that data can be saved to + +00:10:41.160 --> 00:10:44.319 +with the Org element cache to Org persist, + +00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:46.679 +and the next time you load this file + +00:10:46.680 --> 00:10:47.919 +in another Emacs session, + +00:10:47.920 --> 00:10:50.959 +we can just start with the cached data + +00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:53.119 +instead of having to construct everything from scratch, + +00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:56.439 +which is quite nice. Once again, a change which + +00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:57.719 +much like the other ones, + +00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:00.359 +we will see more of an impact in larger files, + +00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:02.719 +but a very welcome one everywhere. + +NOTE More careful resource downloading + +00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:06.799 +Now with remote files, there's also been the beginnings + +00:11:06.800 --> 00:11:09.239 +of a bit of an effort with Org + +00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.119 +to improve the approach we have to safety. + +00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:14.999 +So in this case previously, + +00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.639 +Org would unconditionally download + +00:11:17.640 --> 00:11:19.559 +all the remotes of files that's all referenced. + +00:11:19.560 --> 00:11:23.759 +And now, it's actually going to maintain a list of + +00:11:23.760 --> 00:11:25.519 +sort of safe resources and prompt you + +00:11:25.520 --> 00:11:26.639 +when it's surprised by something, + +00:11:26.640 --> 00:11:29.886 +to work out whether it should + +00:11:29.887 --> 00:11:31.839 +just download this one resource, + +00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.279 +mark the whole domain as safe, and a few other options. + +00:11:35.280 --> 00:11:36.759 +We're also going to probably see + +00:11:36.760 --> 00:11:39.079 +a similar approach extend to, for instance, + +00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:40.199 +bits of Babel execution in the future. + +NOTE Bug fixes + +00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:45.359 +Okay bug fixes. It will be remiss of me not to mention that + +00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:46.919 +along with all of the features + +00:11:46.920 --> 00:11:49.359 +and quality of life improvements, + +00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:51.879 +there has been a huge pile of bug fixes. + +00:11:51.880 --> 00:11:57.319 +I think the best way to actually get a look at this + +00:11:57.320 --> 00:11:59.039 +would be to look at the release notes + +00:11:59.040 --> 00:12:00.599 +or maybe even the actual commit log, + +00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:04.119 +but you could also just take my word and say that + +00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:05.639 +there have been a whole load of them + +00:12:05.640 --> 00:12:11.599 +over the past year. So just yes, the code base, I think, + +00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:15.799 +is just gradually getting into better and better shape. + +NOTE Asynchronous session evaluation + +00:12:15.800 --> 00:12:18.199 +Asynchronous session evaluation is I think possibly + +00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:19.679 +the final quality-of-life improvement + +00:12:19.680 --> 00:12:22.119 +I want to mention. This came early in the year, + +00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:24.639 +just with ob-python, and it's been delayed + +00:12:24.640 --> 00:12:26.479 +because in order to actually make it work, + +00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:29.399 +they've required some fundamental changes to the way + +00:12:29.400 --> 00:12:31.079 +that ob-comint works. + +00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:33.599 +Now that's been implemented, + +00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:36.679 +we've since seen support extended to ob-R, + +00:12:36.680 --> 00:12:38.719 +and hopefully, we'll see more languages join this list + +00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:42.799 +in the not-too-distant future. + +NOTE Nicer tangle mode syntax + +00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:45.799 +Now I guess one bonus which I tacked on just for fun is + +00:12:45.800 --> 00:12:47.639 +it's now more convenient than ever + +00:12:47.640 --> 00:12:52.039 +to actually specify the permissions for tangled files. + +00:12:52.040 --> 00:12:54.999 +Previously you had to give a list expression + +00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:55.839 +which should be evaluated. + +00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:58.319 +Now you can give it directly in octal form + +00:12:58.320 --> 00:12:59.719 +instead of being a list expression + +00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:01.959 +that produces an integer representation + +00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:03.639 +of the octal permissions. + +00:13:03.640 --> 00:13:08.439 +Or you can use ls style: rwx and dashes. + +00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:13.079 +Or even just chmod. I want to be able to execute this + +00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.386 +as a user, which will basically modify + +00:13:16.387 --> 00:13:18.279 +the default permission to add that capability. + +NOTE A flourishing ecosystem + +00:13:18.280 --> 00:13:22.679 +Alrighty. So that's the Org project itself, + +00:13:22.680 --> 00:13:24.799 +but there's also a whole ecosystem. + +00:13:24.800 --> 00:13:27.439 +So what have we got here? + +00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:30.319 +Well a whole bunch of Zettelkasten + +00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:32.599 +or personal-knowledge-base-type projects. + +00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:36.239 +One of which is logseq, so that's an online open source + +00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:39.639 +Zettelkasten which supports both Markdown + +00:13:39.640 --> 00:13:41.799 +and also Org mode as a first-class format. + +00:13:41.800 --> 00:13:45.599 +Then of course we have Org Roam, which provides + +00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:48.879 +a Zettelkasten built directly on top of Org within Emacs. + +00:13:48.880 --> 00:13:51.639 +Both of these are seen considerably interesting + +00:13:51.640 --> 00:13:52.599 +over the past year. + +NOTE Org-modern + +00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:56.799 +Moving on to visuals, minad has produced + +00:13:56.800 --> 00:14:00.439 +another lovely minad package in the form of org-modern + +00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:04.559 +which just spruces up the visuals of all documents + +00:14:04.560 --> 00:14:09.519 +and seems to have been quite well received recently + +00:14:09.520 --> 00:14:10.119 +since its release. + +NOTE citeproc-org + +00:14:10.120 --> 00:14:13.159 +Building on top of the citations from earlier, + +00:14:13.160 --> 00:14:14.559 +Andras Simonyi has produced + +00:14:14.560 --> 00:14:16.559 +the wonderful citeproc-org library, + +00:14:16.560 --> 00:14:20.799 +which, if you're not familiar, + +00:14:20.800 --> 00:14:24.999 +allows the capabilities of the citation style language + +00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:26.639 +which has now become something + +00:14:26.640 --> 00:14:27.999 +which is quite widely supported + +00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:31.079 +to be used for Org citation exports. + +00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:33.799 +This means that you've got access to I think at this point + +00:14:33.800 --> 00:14:35.799 +is it thousands or tens of thousands + +00:14:35.800 --> 00:14:39.879 +of different bibliography and citation formats + +00:14:39.880 --> 00:14:42.919 +which is obviously a huge boon to org citations. + +00:14:42.920 --> 00:14:46.559 +Lastly, just to be slightly critical, + +00:14:46.560 --> 00:14:49.519 +I'm actually going to mention the Neovim Org mode project, + +00:14:49.520 --> 00:14:52.079 +because I think this really shows the interest + +00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:55.359 +in Org as the format, beyond just Emacs. + +00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:58.239 +I think I haven't gone into it much here, + +00:14:58.240 --> 00:15:00.919 +but there's been quite a lot of development + +00:15:00.920 --> 00:15:04.559 +with external tools making use of the Org format. + +00:15:04.560 --> 00:15:07.519 +Clearly, we've done quite a few things right, + +00:15:07.520 --> 00:15:11.599 +and so I think it's interesting to see the interest + +00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:13.319 +that exists outside of Emacs, + +00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:15.239 +even without all the lovely tooling we've built, + +00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:18.599 +just out of appreciation of the formatting, its potential. + +00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:21.079 +Speaking of the format, though, + +00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:24.159 +we've also seen three new parsers on the scene this year. + +00:15:24.160 --> 00:15:27.359 +We've got one in Julia, Haskell + +00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:28.599 +and another one for Tree sitter. + +00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:30.999 +The last one, I think, is currently the least capable, + +00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:32.479 +but also potentially the most interesting + +00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:36.959 +in terms of what possibilities it allows for. + +00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:42.079 +Okay. So that's a quick speed run through + +00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:44.039 +some of the developments over the past year. + +NOTE Continuing work on the Org format + +00:15:44.040 --> 00:15:47.959 +What's coming next? So there's been + +00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:50.999 +quite a lot of work done with the Org syntax document. + +00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:54.199 +In fact, I've completely written it, + +00:15:54.200 --> 00:15:57.239 +and we've now taken it up to spec + +00:15:57.240 --> 00:15:59.799 +to actually accurately describe the way + +00:15:59.800 --> 00:16:03.199 +that the Org format is, as of Org 9.6. + +00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:08.079 +Now, I think this is quite an important document + +00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:09.799 +for the growth in parsing tools + +00:16:09.800 --> 00:16:11.279 +to help actually ensure + +00:16:11.280 --> 00:16:16.439 +that the way that external tools process Org + +00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:20.079 +is actually in sync with the way that Org mode does. + +00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:22.559 +I think it's worth doing everything we can, really, + +00:16:22.560 --> 00:16:24.839 +to avoid the sort of implementation drift + +00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:27.719 +that we've seen with Markdown. + +00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:29.839 +I don't want anything near that. + +00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:32.486 +This is also quite good for the Org format itself because, + +00:16:32.487 --> 00:16:34.479 +in the process of going through this sort of effort, + +00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:38.199 +it brings attention to irregularities in the syntax + +00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:41.519 +which you might want to resolve, and as well as + +00:16:41.520 --> 00:16:43.919 +helping the robustness of org mode itself. + +00:16:43.920 --> 00:16:46.279 +So ultimately, this is to everybody's benefit, really. + +00:16:46.280 --> 00:16:51.799 +It's also my personal hope that this might actually + +00:16:51.800 --> 00:16:54.879 +get to the point where we consider submitting this + +00:16:54.880 --> 00:16:59.039 +as a text format to the Internet Engineering Task Force + +00:16:59.040 --> 00:17:06.319 +as a new text format. So that would be quite nice. + +NOTE Mailing list management + +00:17:06.320 --> 00:17:09.639 +The Org project itself has a layer on top + +00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:13.679 +of the mailing list called Woof developed by Bastien, + +00:17:13.680 --> 00:17:16.119 +and that's about to have another major release. + +00:17:16.120 --> 00:17:21.359 +So what this is going to do is improve the ease of which + +00:17:21.360 --> 00:17:23.319 +we can actually monitor what's going on + +00:17:23.320 --> 00:17:27.079 +with the mailing list. So this is when people have patches, + +00:17:27.080 --> 00:17:29.599 +bug reports, or other types of things + +00:17:29.600 --> 00:17:30.519 +raised on the mailing list. + +00:17:30.520 --> 00:17:34.039 +It's a nice way to collect the status of those + +00:17:34.040 --> 00:17:35.039 +and put them all in one place. + +00:17:35.040 --> 00:17:37.879 +So improvements to this improve the ease of which + +00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:40.399 +the Org mode project can be managed, + +00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:41.919 +which is always quite nice to see. + +NOTE Further engraving + +00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:46.319 +There's also been--jumping back to the export + +00:17:46.320 --> 00:17:48.359 +which is mentioned right at the start of this presentation-- + +00:17:48.360 --> 00:17:51.839 +we've got the introduction of engraved faces + +00:17:51.840 --> 00:17:54.479 +to LaTeX export. Now what's quite interesting about this + +00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:57.599 +is that it's actually used as Emacs' native font lock + +00:17:57.600 --> 00:18:01.239 +and allows for processing that in a generalized way + +00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:03.839 +to different output formats. So at the moment, + +00:18:03.840 --> 00:18:06.919 +this is just integrated with ox-latex, + +00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:11.199 +but it contains the functionality needed for HTML and ASCII, + +00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:13.719 +and it could also be extended to other formats like ODT. + +00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:18.279 +So we could potentially have full syntax highlighting + +00:18:18.280 --> 00:18:20.959 +based on Emacs exported to, well, + +00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:24.199 +really all of the Org mode backends, + +00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:27.359 +except, I suppose, the plain text ones like Markdown. + +00:18:27.360 --> 00:18:29.759 +And I think from both the capabilities perspective-- + +00:18:29.760 --> 00:18:33.039 +because I think, really, font lock in Emacs + +00:18:33.040 --> 00:18:34.199 +from Emacs major modes + +00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:37.159 +tends to blow basically everything else vaguely used + +00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:39.239 +out of the water, whether it be listings, minted + +00:18:39.240 --> 00:18:44.999 +or other efforts--and also from a consistency point of view, + +00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:49.719 +this could be quite a nice development. + +00:18:49.720 --> 00:18:51.119 +Alrighty. Now this talk is "This Year in Org," + +00:18:51.120 --> 00:18:52.599 +and I think you all may have guessed + +00:18:52.600 --> 00:18:57.759 +this is very much tied into my work with This Month in Org + +00:18:57.760 --> 00:19:00.119 +which started, I think, a bit over a year ago. + +00:19:00.120 --> 00:19:04.919 +And so, as you're all avid readers, + +00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:05.919 +I'm sure you've noticed + +00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:08.519 +that there haven't been as many posts as of late. + +00:19:08.520 --> 00:19:11.879 +Now this isn't because my interest in This Month in Org + +00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:15.879 +has been diminishing. Simply, it's the consequence + +00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:18.759 +of an evaporation of my free time. + +00:19:18.760 --> 00:19:22.359 +However, This Month in Org is still going to stick around. + +00:19:22.360 --> 00:19:26.159 +The only change really is that the title is going to be-- + +00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:27.999 +probably continue to be + +00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:30.039 +a bit more aspirational than descriptive + +00:19:30.040 --> 00:19:32.959 +in the near future. We'll see how this goes. + +00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:36.719 +Well, thanks for listening to this overview + +00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:38.599 +of the state of Org at the moment, + +00:19:38.600 --> 00:19:51.880 +and hopefully, I'll see you next year. diff --git a/2022/info/orgyear-after.md b/2022/info/orgyear-after.md index 56775ce2..e8ed5d46 100644 --- a/2022/info/orgyear-after.md +++ b/2022/info/orgyear-after.md @@ -1,6 +1,404 @@ + +# Transcript + +[[!template new="1" text="""Hello.
