I wonder what is the best way to work with fixed dates in org.
I do not want to them entered as "SCHEDULED".
Say I have a meeting on a certain date.
I do not want to enter it as a todo, as for me it is not really a todo
but a simple meeting which is done when it is over.
If I enter it as a simple headline (todo or no todo) and schedule it
it will show up after the meeting as due until I mark it as "DONE" or
delete the schedule.
Now I could use the diary. Agenda view will show the event and
complain no more after it is past. Disadvantage: I cannot org-tag the
diary entry.
As I do not use the diary and diary functions are included in org I
can use something like:
* Fixed date event :@LOCATION:
<%%(diary-date 29 08 2007)>
which is ugly and cannot be entered with the help of the calendar (as
by "C-c C-s"
What do you think? Would it be a good idea to at least support the
entering of a "diary-date" by a org function directly with the help of
the calendar? Maybe create a third type of schedule type: "FIXED"
besides of "SCHEDULED" and "DEADLINE"?
How do you manage fixed events?
What's wrong with just using a regular date?
* Test
<2007-08-27 Mon 10:00-11:00>
It shows up on the agenda on the date and time specified similar to a
diary entry.
