Most importantly, there is a converter that will take your kGTD file and convert it to the GTDAlt format.
Ah this is great. Does it also preserves the archive (as an history of what was done and when)?
No, but that is an interesting idea. I already traverse the entire XML tree, so it should be possible to work on the archive part as well. I'll see if I can incorporate it as some point in the future, though right now I am swamped with other things.
There is limited integration with Remind and iCal. The iCal integration is not very stable yet, though I think a couple of people use it. Improving that is one of my goals for the bundle.
Very nice. So it would make integrating with the Palm fairly simple.
Another simple solution would be a way to export the list of tasks to files whose name is the context. This would be sufficient for a read-only integration with the Palm (which is how I use the iCal integration of kGTD today because of some bug that prevents "done" status on the Palm to be propagated back to kGTD).
I have a script that I use to obtain all actions with given context, and then show these using GeekTool. For now I have not made it public because it's a bit rough on the ends, but I'll see if I can polish it and make it available. One could then use this to create those files.
With the limited testing that I have done, changes in iCal will propagate back to GTDAlt, though this is definitely one of the not 100% reliable areas of the system atm.
