Hi,

The Library of Babel includes the *gdoc-read* and *gdoc-write* blocks
for reading from and writing to Google documents, which could be neat.
However, these rely on the *googlecl* tool, which has been broken since
at least 2015: https://github.com/gcode-mirror/googlecl

Can anyone think of any reason not to remove them?

Better yet, do they inspire ideas for other code blocks we ought to have
that can do similarly useful things in 2026?

Expiry: 2026-05-01.

Background: Org's Library of Babel (LoB) is a collection of useful code
blocks that can be called from any Org file,
see (info "(org) Library of Babel").
Org-babel comes pre-populated with the code blocks that live in the
document at
https://orgmode.org/worg/library-of-babel.org

You can find the code blocks in question there under the heading
"File I/O::Remote files::Google docs". 

Regards,
Christian
