Re: [Orgmode] QUESTION how to revert repeating sub-tasks?

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Eraldo,

this is currently not possible - please take a look at org- 
checklist.el, maybe that is a way to address your wish.

Otherwise, I guess I could make a hook that you could use to fix the  
issue for yourself.  I guess more than just witching the states would  
be need, for example cleaning up logging time stamps and notes???
