[Orgmode] not exporting TODOs but exporting their subordinates

[Sam Cramer]

When working on a document, I tend to sprinkle TODO headlines throughout the doc. �These are really very loosely structured; they just represent things that I need to do somewhat near the area that I'm looking at. �

I mark these lines with a :noexport: tag in order to prevent them from being exported. �As such, they're not part of the document structure per-se, and I often mark them as top level headlines. �Since EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS applies to a tree and not to a title, this prevents the export of any subordinate items.

Here's an example:

* An amazing headline

** stuff

** more stuff

* TODO clean up the stuff above :noexport:

** this is stuff that I would like exported

In the example above, I'd like to have the everything but the TODO headline exported, including the "this is stuff I would like exported" line.

I guess that I could always have my TODO lines be at a very deep level. �Is there any other solution I should consider?

Thanks,
Sam
