Well, after we have the first working version, we can release it as a generic editor, so we can be that really cool GWT editor. If it's outside, we won't be able to control it (as in "strongly request the features we need"). If we manage to make it generic enough to attract a community, we can emphasize the features we need, and let others make it glittery and shiny, so we'll have the best editor custom made for XWiki. So Marius, keep in mind that any XWiki specific feature must not be hard wired in the editor. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
