Nice to be back! This is some *really* nice stuff you've done here.
And this time I am a lot more familiar with lispy things, so hopefully I
can be more helpful. :)
I've also been browsing around on your site, it has been very useful. :)
I saw the IRC log re:planner-muse - it seems you must be doing
something right, if a port to different publishing framework would be
so (relatively) straightforward.

Oh, it displays now - I yanked them into customize and saved.
I thought it odd, too. All that was in my .emacs, but the loading of
Planner, EmacsWiki, etc. was commented out. I un-commented then
evaluated them, and opened a planner page.

I've gotten it; I'll give it a try and report back, thanks.
I've posted another message with my understanding of how the
emacs-wiki side seems to go about project switching - I figured I
should start there since Planner depends on EmacsWiki.
But now I wonder: does Planner simply avail itself of EmacsWiki
features, but otherwise benignly ignore it?
I.e., in a perfect world(TM) could one be working on a non-Planner
wiki project and a Planner project, simultaneously?
That might be useful, and it would certainly make Planner that much
more 'portable' between publishing environments.

I've the stable arch - woot!
I fired up my old project, and everything picked up right where I left
off, and publishing seems to work.
The new 'hierarchical' stuff was the kicker - I _like_ that!
FTR, I've read the ChangeLog, and though you've obviously been rather
busy on it, there doesn't appear to be anything too scary. I noticed
the log begins March, I'm guessing that is when you switched to GNU
Arch.
