Hello, I found your project from the worg tools list. First, sorry for the semi-spam nature of this issue. I had a notion for a project that the org community might find useful and I'm looking for feedback. Feel free to close this issue if it doesn't sound useful to you.

My idea is to start a list of org-mode snippets which can serve as a test bed for people developing tools. The idea is that having a separate collection of examples makes it easier for others in the community to benefit from the examples developed through communication with users.

Users could use these samples to try to construct minimal examples of issues they're having and/or contribute examples there which others could benefit from. Exactly how it will take shape is still up in the air.

These samples could also serve as a place to discuss ideas about how to develop the grammar itself. According to worg, the spec is still in draft state.

There's not much there at the moment. Mostly because I don't want to commit too early to what seems like it might be useful. I'll add more examples as I go.

If you like the concept and/or want to contribute and/or just want to offer feedback, I'd very much appreciate it.

Again, sorry for the spam.

org-mode badly needs a grammar so I strongly support any effort to formalize it but I'm not actively maintaining this project except for low-effort work (mostly merging / reviewing PRs from other contributors) so I don't think this is very actionable for me at this time.
