I look at Mori, and DevonThink (which the Mori people mention on  
their page) as interesting tools in a slighty different dimension  
than the way that I use kGTD/Omnioutliner.    I'd say that  kGTD/ 
Omnioutliner implement the triage portion of the David Allen  
methodology, and that tools like Mori, DevonThink, Yojimbo, etc  
implement the Action support / Reference filing portion of GTD.    In  
an ideal world, you'd have one app for all of those areas.

I personally think that DevonThink is a more interesting application  
because it's technology for text processing appears to better than Mori.

I do find it interesting that the Mori folks are willing to give  
interested developer access to their source code.   Another  
interesting thing is the way that the OmniOutliner, DevonThink, and  
Mori folks are really taking advantage of the Mac's system wide  
scripting to allow enhancements.
