I'll be talking about that in Basel in October, most likely -- am
using it for everything work-wise these days, and having TODO's and
the org-agenda globally accessible across projects, be they device or
drug-related,, and within/around code has done wonders for my
work-related productivity.  We are still 3 people short in the group
(40% filled) and I'm hoping that productivity gains when we work
together en-mass early next year will be helpful.

Also, the org -> LaTeX article and org-> beamer modes are stellar for
getting pointy-headed documentation finished.  Just have to figure out
our next FDA submission work with it :-).
