Re: [O] Public TODO agendas

I don't think tramp will work in this way, at least not without some
sort of special client running on the remote http server and
modifications to tramp to work with that client. The HTTP protocol will
not easily fit with tramp - in fact, it is such a big 'disconnect'
between tramp and http, you really would be trying to push a round peg
into a square hole. It would be far easier to use other built-in bits of
Emacs functionality along with some sort of remote http service agent to
satisfy this use case (assuming you want bi-directional updates
i.e. pull down an org file, update and push back up - just pulling down
the file and appending it would be easy enough, but going the other way
adds a lot of additional complexity). 

Perhaps this is more something which could fit in with mobile org
efforts?
