Manos

Apologies - I am not being impatient or trying to point fingers!
I am always amazed with the effort and enthusiasm that 
goes into open-source and am very grateful for the great work
that is produced ... I was just noticing that this *seems* to be
one area where work seems somewhat fragmented and was
wondering why?

You are right - the other editors I have looked at are java-based
are required installation; I assume yours runs off a server and 
operates in the browser - if so, I will be very impressed!  I look
forward (with lots of patience!) to seeing it.

Thanks
Derek

Derek,

I absolutely agree, but give me a break; I just registered with
sourceforge and no files have been committed. Is it so bad I want to
present a solid code base first?

Besides, I haven't seen any other (cross) browser based XML editor
(meaning not based on java or activeX). Have some patience please, I
already feel guilty about folks waiting for this project on XML-Doc...
