and this is exactly what Neutron tries to solve. Instead writing for each editor a dedicated connector implement Neutron once ;-)


i like the idea of neutron, but your argument is a little strange. i might as well suggest that all editors implement a bxe-compatible mode. (now that would be frightful indeed :) but it's the same as with many things w3c: working drafts come cheap, it's the implementations that make a new spec.


agreed. We are trying to convince people by actually doing it ...


as nice as neutron seems, it does ring a warning bell that there are no other implementations on the horizon. i don't mean to disrespect the effort, but as it is now, it's just another single-vendor standard...


I don't think it's a single-vendor standard. Yes, it's hosted at http://neutron.wyona.org, but it hasn't anything specific to Wyona products.

At the time when I got the idea I was proposing it within the OSCOM community, but people didn't really seem to be interested or didn't understand what I was talking about (maybe my bad ;-), but I wanted to go ahead anyway and I think we try our best to make it as neutral as possible ;-)

You might want to subscribe to the neutron mailing list and check the amendments which we are currently discussing (e.g. about versioning, etc.)


that said, i'm all for integrating a complete neutron implementation into lenya, but it does not really address the current issue of editor abstraction.


why not? You mean because not all editors are using Neutron yet?


get the tinymce people to add a neutron front-end, and i will be dancing naked on the streets shouting "michi, you da man!" :)


well, let me try ;-) but I think it's important that all of us should request an abstraction layer from the Editor vendors/communities, whereas it doesn't have to be Neutron. It can also be WebDAV or APP or whatever, but it should be standardized.

Cheers

Michi
