Hello, I know I am a bit late but after a second thought, I have decided to candidate for the project "JavaScript for info-style navigation".
As an extensive Emacs user, I really enjoy reading Info manuals because of the amazing index command and the possibility to search through the whole manual via regexps. I would really be interested in porting those wonderful features to the browser which is I guess the most common way for people to read manuals written in texinfo. The principal reason that was refraining my proposal, is that I have never written any serious project in Javascript yet. I know its syntax, its object model, and as a Scheme programmer I am familiar with functional programming in general, however I am not fluent with the various Javascript APIs and the common idioms. Having said that I am willing to overcome my deficiencies and become more familiar with Javascript. The fact that Per Bothner has already written some parts of the implementation will help me. What do people think? Thanks. -- Mathieu Lirzin GPG: F2A3 8D7E EB2B 6640 5761 070D 0ADE E100 9460 4D37 PS: I am also candidating for a Guix related project in parallel
