00:00 Thanks
04:30 How did you come up with this knowledge? By doing or by experience or by reading books? Which?
06:10 How did you come to start using Org?
08:39 You have recently overseen a major transition for org mode maintenance. What would you advise for other teams that are preparing for transitions so that processes can be maintained with minimal disruption? How do we take processes that were originally maintained by a single person to one maintained by multiple people?
10:55 Which place is the right place to request a dark mode in Org Mode website?
11:27 More thanks
15:09 Does this mean that you do not need to be technical to become a maintainer?
17:24 What does the day of the Org Mode maintainer look like? Lots of hours of work every day?
21:11 Do you think having centralized roles for people to carry out certain tasks such as documentation across multiple areas would be a constructive approach to inviting new maintainers (in contrast to "every person take an issue of their own choosing", which leaves parts of maintenance and documentation neglected)?
24:21 I think Org has and may potentially greatly influence Emacs development. If you would tend to agree, do you have places where you feel Emacs need to "pull back" harder, to influence Org? Key areas where Org is clearly "leading the way"?
27:52 Could you expand a little on what's happening on contrib?
35:32 Orgdown
54:54 What about backlinks?
