Well Leif kindly sent me the beta so I could find out myself.

Currently Okito has ad-hoc styling, very ad-hoc (and dodgy, just like 
Nisus moving a paragraph around may not end up with what you 
intended...). Hopefully this is good news as Nisus can build a proper 
system from scratch, which makes me wonder what is in Okito that 
would be useful to Nisus - if they've started on Nisus X they must be 
further along than this by now, surely? Maybe they're just employing 
some (a?) good program architect(s).

The use of RTF as a file format is not good, RTF stands for "Random 
Text Format" or something like that - not even Word can consistently 
write & read RTF files (here people are strongly advised against 
using RTF). Though it is rather overworked right now, surely a much 
better file format would be XML? Define a Nisus DTD and away we go...

Just my 0.2cents worth
