-------------------------------
Hi Henry,
> I think YUI is a good library ...
For most of our user needs, Nicedit would have been a much better alternative
(see the advantages mentioned in the issue and on the old mailing lists about
this theme), if ... only if would have been maintained :).
When I submitted this issue, Nicedit was growing, and may projects adopted it
(even commercial ones), because it was so fast, lightweight but with enough
features.
It is still very important to have a smaller alternative to YUI, for 80% of use
cases, but there's seems to be none so far that is license compatible (TinyMCE
was used a lot before, but it's not license compatible) :(.

> Replace YUI WYSIWYG with something better.

> Project: Click
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: examples

>
> Please replace the YUI WYSIWYG with something much much better smaller
> (<10x), e.g. like NicEdit:
> http://nicedit.com/
> NicEdit looks much better as a Click Control than the YUI one:
> - it's much much smaller(~30k compared to ~500k for YUI)
> - the license is also compatible (MIT)
> - it's also very simple to make the replacement (see the demos and docs).
> I think this would be a much better example for the users too (not just for
> speed and download reasons), because, it's much simpler to develop a plug-in
> for it (in case it's required).
> Thank you,
> A.
