I have no issues with it being added to part of SVN.

  I won't go over the different points raised in the conversation, but just 
some 
quick thoughts:

- Within crossfire, there has never really been any standard set of programs 
that must be supported.  So just the fact it gets added to SVN hardly means 
that 
all developers need to support it, and in fact, there are various pieces right 
now where that really is not the case.

- If over time/through lack of support it does no longer work, it can always 
get 
removed.

- It's impossible to force anyone to work on anything when folks are 
contributing their time freely.  While there may be 'better' things to work on 
(and different people may have different ideas what should be worked on), 
getting them to do it may not be possible.  If the user doesn't have any 
interest in working on that, it just won't happen.

- With that above note, it means that all that crossfire can really limit is if 
it is in SVN or not.  Raphael can continue to work on it in either case.  And 
for that matter, could create another project on sourceforge to hold the 
editor. 
  It's not clear to me that is any better than having it under the crossfire 
tree.  Documentation stating is current state could be included.  If other 
folks 
use it, it would seem worthwhile.
