Bernt is right, and this patch tries to clarify the issue.
* lisp/org-agenda.el (org-agenda-action): Make `c' key call org-capture.
* lisp/org-capture.el: New file.
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-get-x-clipboard): Function moved here from
remember.el.
* lisp/org-mks.el: New file
* lisp/org.el (org-set-regexps-and-options): Allow statistic cookies as
part of complex headlines.
(org-find-olp): New argument THIS-BUFFER. When set, assume that the
OLP does not contain a file name.
source-code-chapter.texi is just reference.org with level 1 headings
replaced with @section, and level 2 headings replaced with
@subsection, and with a top level @chapter node. This file is included
in org.texi with an @include line for now.
* lisp/org.el (org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree): New option.
(org-kill-line): Protect hidden subtrees if the user wants it.
* doc/org.texi (Headlines): Mention the special behavior of C-k
in headlines.

Now you can set :stepskip0 to achieve this.

This behavior is now parallel to the treatment of outline nodes.
This commit also introduces another change. When an outline node or a
plain list item is folded by outline and contains hidden children,
M-left/right will refuse to act on this item. You must either open
the tree, or use the subtree commands M-S-left and M-S-right.
Based on a patch by Matti De Craene, but significantly modified after
a discussion involving Bernt Hansen and others.
The target state can now be fixed locally with the REPEAT_TO_STATE
property, or globally with the variable `org-todo-repeat-to-state'.
This was a request by John Wiegley.
source-code-chapter.texi is just reference.org with level 1 headings
replaced with @section, and level 2 headings replaced with
@subsection, and with a top level @chapter node. This file is included
in org.texi with an @include line for now.
This new code will search #+INDEX lines in the buffer. For LaTeX, it
will simple convert these into LaTeX \index{} commands. For other
backends, it will copy thee entries to a new file, with extension
orgx. These files can then later be post-processed to create the index.

This support was totally broken. It works now again. Unfortunately
it is not possible to edit the table directly in the org-mode buffer
anymore - to edit such a table, you have to use C-c '
This patch implements reading American dates, like
2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05
2/5 --> ????-02-05
Is also fixes a bug that would force the current year when reading a
date like 2/5 (American) or 2-5 (ISO), and in this way would prevent
`org-read-date-prefer-future' to do its job. This bug was reported by
Lukasz Stelmach.
This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produce for example
by viewing from the agenda. Reported by Matt Lundin:

Add a variable org-complete-tags-always-offer-all-agenda-tags, which makes org
complete all tags from all agenda files if non-nil. Usually, setting it
locally to t in org-remember buffers is most convenient.
