I'll let you add a link to your page on Worg when you have the time.

Just to tell you a bit more about my plan: I will take the time to
work on Worg next week, creating a dedicated branch and publishing it
on orgmode.org/worg-next/ or something.

Yes, I understand.  Worg was a place to gather contributions when the
Org users formed a small dedicated group.  Org's "community" is larger
now, and I think Org should be a place with less textual contents and
more links to useful stuff.  Like a giant structured FAQ, more than a
giant... mess.

I think that your goals for org-almanac resemble the ones I have for
Worg: less content, clear structure, make it more maintainable, even
collectively.  Without sacrificing the current richness, of course.

This will be more tangible when I start pushing worg-next/.

Thanks,
