Done.

Now done. And I converted the maintenance "FIXME" notes to inlinetasks.

Exactly what I used.
I also changed these macros to use CSS styles, which automatically
allows properly named special blocks.
See https://orgmode.org/worg/worg-editing.html#org366cb9a
and https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/images-and-xhtml-export.html
for examples of the new info/warning box styles.

The assignment process does not always go quickly; occasionally it
may get stuck or overlooked at the FSF. If there is no response to
the contributor from FSF within a month[2], the maintainers can ask
the contributor to follow up with the FSF, CCing the Org
maintainers.

Not for inlinetasks. For everything but heading, we can actually use
special blocks.

For headings, there is also :HTML_HEADLINE_CLASS property.

Yes, but they are currently rather plain (other than having an image):

.org-info-box {
clear:both;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
padding:0.7em;
}
.org-info-box img {
float:left;
margin:0em 0.5em 0em 0em;
}
.org-info-box p {
margin:0em;
padding:0em;
}

Wondering if we should add some background.

.org-info-box is certainly not suitable for inline highlights.
Do we need such highlights though? Isn't the classic
italic/bold/underline enough?

while it can definitely read that way, to me as a native speaker at least,
it is reasonably ok, although ambiguous.  it is saying, somewhat casually,
that in rare cases it is /needed/ for the org maintainer to intervene and
he or she does so successfully or so.  removing ambiguity would  help, but
nto a huge deal.

apropos of nothing, ambiguity should be eliminated from medical textbooks
and papers.  "rarely, " can be interpreted like, it's rare so look for
horses not zebras [neglecting that zebras exist], or it's rare but consider
it and find out more about it, or various other things.

A few thoughts:

1.  Having to use separate BEGIN and END macros is less convenient than 
more Lispy constructs, like a macro call with a string argument.  But I 
guess, to wrap Org elements, like a TODO heading or inline task, it 
would be necessary.  A macro call with the text as an argument wouldn't 
be a task in Org syntax, which would make it less useful outside of 
rendered HTML.


2.  Those macros, or one much like them, could be useful for the use 
case of centering text to stand out, as discussed in the other thread.


3.  For cases that don't potentially involve wrapping Org elements, 
having a simple macro with the text as its argument might be preferable 
to having separate BEGIN and END macros.  I wonder if we could have 
non-begin-end equivalents of the begin-and-end macros listed there.

I do not mind. I can also add a link to my email there.

I just looked into changing this TODO into inlinetask and that would
require adding a style for inlinetasks. While looking, I noticed a
commented section in worg-editing.org:

- BeginMiniPage ... EndMiniPage :: creates a mini page with a border. Used 
to
 demonstrate layouts (see: 
[[file:./org-tutorials/images-and-xhtml-export.org]] for
 an example).

- BeginInfoBox ... EndInfoBox :: inserts a box with a little info icon on 
the
 left. The text inside flows around the icon. Both, info and warning 
boxes,
 use the styles for =.org-info-box= in 
[[file:style/worg.css][worg.css]].

- BeginWarningBox ... EndWarningBox :: Like =BeginInfoBox= and 
=EndInfoBox=. The
 icon used is different.

- BeginBlindText ... EndBlindText :: creates a == element, that
 greys out the text. Used for text that is there just to fill paragraphs
 to demonstrate text flow (see:
 [[file:./org-tutorials/images-and-xhtml-export.org]] for an example).

In particular, BeginWarningBox (see
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/images-and-xhtml-export.html)
might be a basis of inlinetask css.

Or we may be copy the style from ox-html.

Also, the above macros may we one existing way to provide highlighting
we discussed earlier.

Yes, it has to be, if we stick to what gnu.org says:

   ... Please don’t use any of
   the templates except for those listed here, and please don’t change the
   wording.

(I personally also do prefer the changed wording, but we are not

I think that we are not very accurate here.
According to
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html#Copyright-Papers:

Once the conversation is under way and the contributor is ready for more
details, you should send one of the templates that are found in the
directory /gd/gnuorg/Copyright/; they are also available from the
doc/Copyright/ directory of the gnulib project at
https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnulib. This section explains which
templates you should use in which circumstances. Please don’t use any of
the templates except for those listed here, and please don’t change the
wording.

We must use a specific form from a specific URL.


That isn't how the Emacs maintainers handle it.  They send a form by 
email when asked, or direct users to use the one in the Emacs git repo. 
AFAICT, they are equivalent, if not identical.


Regardless, it would be nice to have a canonical answer to this.  The 
gnu.org site says one thing, the emacs.git repo says another, 
org-mode.git says another, the people on the mailing say another, and 
Worg says another--all slightly different for no apparent reason. 
(There's also the Emacs manual, which probably mentions it too.)



Also, about the changes to the FSF form that Stefan mentioned in
https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/jwvh6hne6nv.fsf-monnier+em...@gnu.org/
It does not look like they are official yet. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2024-03/msg00060.html


AFAICT the only change is the line that asks the FSF to send additional 
confirmation to some other interested parties.  Does that need to be 
officially official in order to use it?  The alternative is having the 
contributor ask by writing in the email message, which seems equivalent. 
 IOW, it doesn't change the form, it just adds an extra request.

I may be missing something, but the last sentence now reads like our

The previous version is very different, IMHO:


-Emails from the paper submitter have been ignored in the past, but an

I would have preferred to omit all the language about the process

Hence my proposal to wait at least for one month. 

IMO it is not a problem if Org and other GNU packages propose distinct
ping'ing policies as long as the shorter period (one month for Org) is
not shorter than the one proposed for GNU in general (one week, IIUC.)

Sounds reasonable.
It is a longer period compared to 5 business days mentioned in
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html, but the copyright clerk
is just a single guy taking care about all the requests...

When the contributor emails the form to the FSF, the FSF sends per an
electronic (usually PDF) copy of the assignment. This, or whatever
response is required, should happen within five business days of the
initial request. If no reply from the FSF comes after that time, please
send a reminder. If there is still no response after an additional week,
please write to maintain...@gnu.org about it.
