[Vimoutliner] Review of competition -- Emacs org-mode

Hi,

I have been looking for alternatives to VO lately (don't beat me 
for this heretical post, I don't mean to flame; I just spend most 
of my working hours in Firefox and Evolution -- that's not 
choice, but part of the job -- and vim keyboard is getting 
slightly out of my mind, emacs with cua-mode is more closer to 
what my fingers are used to). When looking for outliner for 
Emacs, I found that the situation out there has got drastically 
better in the last couple of years 
(http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/CategoryOutline). We were 
doing some competitive overview in the initial phases of VO 
project, but then there was nothing out there. I am in the 
process of trying org-mode for simple TODO lists (looking for 
appartment in Prague, so I have a lot of todo-lists to deal with 
;-)) and the results seems to be pretty interesting.

Any experience with non-vim outliners lately?

Best,

Matěj
