I think Sławomir makes a good case for moving it. What concepts are used and where are they introduced in the manual? - [X] TODO + Mentioned in Section 1.5 [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Conventions.html][Conventions]] - [ ] Properties + Mentioned in Section 2.7 [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Drawers.html][Drawers]] + Explained in Section 7.1 [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Property-Syntax.html][Property Syntax]] - [X] Headlines + Explained in Section 2.1 [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Headlines.html][Headlines]] TODOs, Properties, and headlines are talked about in the Checkboxes section. Section 2.7 introduces properties. We're proposing inserting Checkboxes into position 2.6.1. This would mean a concept used wouldn't be defined yet. Out of time tonight so I don't have any suggestions for how to address it yet. > In fact, Checkboxes section of the manual was previously under Document > structure.

On 2008-01-27, they were discussing results of a recent survey. I was able to find a copy from the week after the change. I didn't see anything that would have motivated the change. Here's the archived survey. It's interesting. https://web.archive.org/web/20080202231951/https://orgmode.org/survey.html -- Matt Trzcinski Emacs Org contributor (ob-shell) Learn more about Org mode at https://orgmode.org Support Org development at https://liberapay.com/org-mode
