Hi Leo, hi planner folks!

As you Leo I was deep into Planner before diving into Org. But I think
different people have different needs, and it's always great to have a
lots of different Emacs packages in the wild. 

Maybe a comparison would be useful for people trying to find their way
through this wildness.  Here is a first attempt.  

| Feature                  | planner-mode  | org-mode                    |
|--------------------------+---------------+-----------------------------|
| XEmacs/Emacs compat.     | ...           | okay                        |
| file management          | daily-based   | project-based               |
| export formats           | See muse      | HTML LaTeX                  |
| add-ons                  | ...           | TOC blorg registry          |
| mailers support          | ...           | gnus vm wl mh rmail         |
| link types               | ...           | http file bbdb  w3 w3m info |
| calendar/diary/appt      | native        | native                      |
| use it as a wiki         | native        | thru file links?            |
| allow multiple projects  | yes           | yes                         |
| allow project overview   | ...           | quick                       |
| GTD implementation       | ...           | yes                         |
| infile time manipulation | ...           | yes                         |
| time reports             | yes           | yes                         |
| outline structure        | no            | yes                         |
| table editing            | orgtbl-mode   | native                      |
| maintainer               | Michael Olson | Carsten Dominik             |
| community                | active        | very active                 |

Please improve it and consider this as a very drafty version of what can
be done. I would *love* to hear about features that planner has and Org
has not, or maybe perspectives from which planner has a good point --
since it will help Org progress on this :)

Regards,
